I like the 5400 SACD playback so much more than my 555ES, I was very surprised and happy to hear a big improvement in tone quality, clarity, ease of presentation, and musical involvement. Not so much on CD, which I still find to be thin and "White" compared to my XA7, which has much more body and richness. But from what I've gathered reading various comments on the Vac State Mod, I'm guessing it's as close to the Best out there as I can come for the money, and I can deliver and pick it up, no shipping. I expect to hear an improvement equal to or greater than I got when I started with the 5400. I expect it to be more liquid, richer colors, better long term musical involvement, etc. It will be a total Investment of about $3000, I hope the best $3000 I ever spent on Gear! Also, it will play DSD disks that I could make from the Korg DSD Recorder, from rehearsals and concerts I may be in. Cool!!! I guess this like Audio Poker- It's going to cost $1500 to get in the game. I expect to be delighted.( Cut to Homer Simpson pounding his fist into his hand: Because If I'm Not.....) Smiley Face Here.

Thanks, I'm really looking forward to hearing it! I was at Warren's Super Secret Bunker in San Leandro today. I hope he will have time to work on it soon, you know, in between manipulating the World Economy, and bending World Leaders to his Will ( Yes, he's the One!).

He's a very focussed tech who does his work with passion and I'm sure doesn't interfer with world politics.
We had a comparison between the Upgraded 5400ES and a Marantz SA-11-s2 yesterday.
The client who brought his Marantz to compare was stunned - after the first chords of the choosen track had sounded - he let out a "WHOOP" of surprise, and when quizzed later on what he heard as the difference, said:
"The room just opened up,..I could clearly hear the two voice very differentiated...it's so much clearer...etc etc etc."
He left the Marantz for Upgrading.
Regards, Allen
