Thumbs-up Schottky Diode Audiolab 6000cdt Transport Upgrade




Nice little upgrade.

Tidies up the harshness I was hearing on some vocal parts and loud complex passages.

Noticing nuances in tones I didn't realize were there.

And I believe I can honestly use the term "blacker background" for the first time in decades. The last time was when I was moving up on the analog end of my set up.

I've been listening for a couple weeks now to material I am very familiar with. The differences are not huge A/B switching in your face. But enough that under $10 in parts plus my labor makes me very happy.


Though a dealer could easily make a case to someone to upgrade to a next level component $$$ based on less of an improvement. I know this because I have been there.

In a couple months I'll tackle the capacitors.

Thank you to all for input on the mod and the recommendation to use Schottky diodes.
