Default SOLD: Music Hall MMF CD-25 1+ with PartsConnexion Upgrades

SOLD: “Like New” Music Hall MMF CD25 CDP with Underwood HiFi / PartsConnexion 1+ Upgrade. This CDP is one of the best <$2000 players available, which reportedly performs as well as the Cairn Fog V2 24/192 - rich, textured, detailed sound.

It features an HDCD chip, a CD7-servo controlled Philips CDM 12-10 transport, a Burr-Brown 1732 24-bit/96kHz chip, OPA 2134 op amps in the output stage. Connectivity includes one coaxial and one optical digital out each, and one set of coaxial single-ended analog outputs.

The PartsConnexion Level 1+ mod includes: Two sheets of Soundcoat inside the chassis; 4 EAR compliant Sorbothane isolation footers; 1 pair of Vampire OFC copper body, gold-plated RCA output jacks; 2' of DH LABS pure silver, Teflon dielectric output wire; 10 x Japanese Riken Ohm ½ watt Carbon resistors with gold-plated leads in signal path; 8 x Black Gate Standard N- and C-grade electrolytic capacitors around the coupling caps and power supply; 2 x Multicap PPMFX-grade, metallized polypropylene capacitors in the signal path; 8 x SF4007 Vishay-Telefunken diodes added to bias supply; and TRT Wonder solder throughout.

Here are the reviews:
