Steve Nugent at Empirical Audio gave the Benchmark here the full overhaul with replacement of chips and other parts -> a SOA DAC. Not cheap but overall less than some of the opposition and yielding superb sounding music on the best CDs. No "thin" sound as your reference relates but excellent sound stage, dynamics and resolution. No, not quite making CDs sound as good as most SACDs, but very close.John
Do not criticise the idiots in this world - we need them as they make the rest of us look so much better :-)
