Music Hall mods

Hello,

I am a musician who is in the process of putting together a second system for my office/practice room, and I'd like to spend under $2500 for the whole setup. My current thoughts are to get a Jolida JD-1501RC hybrid amp or JD-202A tube amp and a Music Hall CD-25. There are several retailers who offer mods to the Music Hall such as Sound Odyssey and Underwood. Here are some links:

Does anyone have any experience with these mods? Are they worth the extra $250 or so or would that money be better off spent on the speakers or amp. The system will mostly be used for jazz, plus some classical and Latin.

(This is probably the wrong forum, but I'd be interested in opinions on bookshelf speakers to go with this setup as well. I've heard the Totem Rainmaker and liked it but am open to other suggestions. Epos 12.2? Triangle Titus or Comete?)

Thanks,
Fred
