    Nice. But some of what you heard could possibly have been mismatch of components and what your perception of ideal actually is as we all have a different view of that. What's most important is that you've found your "Perfect Match".

    Definitely possible. Though interesting given the hierarchy within Cary. The power supply of the 98 is nowhere near the one on the 05.

    Preferences aside, I find it difficult to understand that the 98 modded would sound better than the 05 given the degree of difference between the 2. But it is within the remote possibility I suppose... especially since there is subjectivity within our hobby.
