I guess I should take this opportunity to comment on my Mitsubishi DA-F20 that Mike did an extreme tune on. This consisted of a new F-type connection, Blackgates in the audio path, power supply recap, a new 2 filter board and an alignment. As I have stated here before, the Mitsubishi outclassed my other tuners Kenwood L-07t, Yamaha T-85, Kenwood KT-7500, Pioneer TX-7500 from the day I got it. The sound quality was excellent though sensitivity was not as good as some of the others. I had beautiful music but the background was never as silent as that put out by the Yamaha. Well I got the tuner back and went through a long burn-in process for the Blackgates and I can now say that 99% of the background hiss, crackle, etc. is GONE. The sound on live shows, which I get several a week of here in NYC are stunning. I listened to a small string quartert performing live from the Met and I kept noticing what appeared to be wood creaking. After I listened a bit, I discovered that the creaking coincided with the Bass players playing. I think I was actually hearing enough detail to hear the floor boards creak under a swaying bass. Very impressive. I also have to mention that I am forced to use an indoor antenna as I live in an apartment so the fact that this modified tuner can perform at this level with poor conditions speaks to the great work Mitsubishi and Mike have done making this an amazing tuner.
Thanks Mike,
Jeff
