In Reply to: No Sense To Internal Upgrades for 777ES for Redbook posted by gsf on June 20, 2001 at 10:58:39:
gsf,The primary reason would be cost. Richard's mod costs $400-500 while adding a DAC good enough to make a substantial improvement over the internal DAC would cost you $3000-6000+. Also the parts upgrade improves SACD performance as well as Redbook, while if you buy the Dodgson or whatever you hear the benefits only on CD. At least one inmate has noted that post modification he no longer felt his external DAC was superior and moved it to another system.
