I am not a fan of harsh music, like some cds of yesterday and today sound. Everything needs a little balance. Unless the recording is PERFECT (like those specialty cds), I prefer my GAT/Dart. The ModWright gives me some of that tube goodness and rounds out the peaks that drive me out of the room. The ModWright on my 077/911/CR-1's sounds amazing. I am a happy camper.
If it had a digital input, I'd be done! Seriously. There are plans on the table but nothing concrete. Hey, it whatever we enjoy.

Very happy for you Joe!
Jim - I know you aren't at all a tube guy, but you REALLY should figure out a way to hear a ModWright Sony 5400 or Oppo 95 in your system. I would lay greater than 50/50 odds you would keep it!
