    I am sorry that you felt personally attacked, but what exactly are you basing your comments about RAM on?

      I thank you for your sentiment. I am in full agreement with those who moded their equipments as I had the chance to listen to their work. I feel RAM should pay attention to the appearance of their work as well. I had a look at an Esound internal work from RAM and although sound reproduction was super it was deplorale to see such poor workmanship. One other factor is high cost, but there is a price to pay for everything.

      Please undersa=tand that when I decide to buy a CDP, several factors must sutisfy my requirements such as aesthetics, internal layout, build quality and most importantly sound quality.

      Thanks

        Fair enough. To me, the sound easily outweighs the look of a mod. Please try to keep in mind that they are working with a predetermined layout and are trying to keep a purist approach with their execution. This may mean gluing a power supply resevoir cap and some output transformers down. BTW, there's a good reason why they use wood with their diode bridge and other small circuits.

        They are mad scientists after all (meant as compliment). Peace.

        Here is a internal pic of the RAM Esound CD-E5 for information purposes.
