Caiman SEG CMOS Clock modification
About a week ago I received my Caiman SEG back from Stan with the standard clock replaced with a CMOS model. Just to put this in context, the supercap mod, Dorado and SEG30 firmware have previously been installed.
The CMOS clock adds to the sense of ambience and improves soundstage with a much clearer sense of the various perfomers position. The full effect for me has been on well recorded live albums but good studio albums also benefit.
It has taken a few days to bed in but I now think I have a DAC that would cost a great deal of money to better.
The cost of the modification is in line with Stans usual bargain price structure so if you want to complete the modifications available to the SEG, I recommend you contact Stan.
