RE: Thumbs-up Schottky Diode Audiolab 6000cdt Transport Upgrade

Before the Schottky diodes I found that certain passages of music had a harshness or smear inherent in the recording.

But now the sound is more focused across and depthwise in the soundstage. It wasn't the recording.

I think that smear is more "obvious" or "bright" with high frequencies and less so as you go down through the midrange and bass tones. So when people say "bright", they may not realize all tones may possibly be suffering. Either way, the diodes are an improvement.

Over the years I have found that I prefer certain cables over others in my set up. The cables did help with the overall brightness right from the start.
