Mod your Beresford 7520

[trailer]

I'm currently evaluating some of these in another dac after another forum member gave them high praise.
Have you tried them yourself yet?

Stuck them in. Just listening for the last half hour. First impressions: leaner sound, not as rich, probably more detail. It's as if someone has boosted the mid range on the EQ. I'll let them run I'm for a day or two. A different sound to the others but pretty good so far.

I've had the 4032's running for about 30 mins now and first impressions are very good. Definitely a bit more detail than the 49720s and what I can only describe as a more even handed sound overall. Probably not quite as much bass punch as the 49720s but I don't mind that.

I'm really looking forward to getting my new speakers now as I think the 4032's will suit them nicely. I'll still try the 49720s and the original opamps with them as well for comparison.

[mwahahaha]

Listening again to the 4032's right now and they're just brilliant in my system - really tick all the right boxes and bass/mid/treble is superb - lots of each but not too much as to be overpowering in any specific area. Superb and really bring out the best in the 7520 - now just to actually get them into the 7520... (With the lid on)

Yes have to agree the 4032 has got rid of the one note bass I found a problem and the level of detail is superb.
Tirna has e-mailed me so I will be returning the op-amp so that it can be altered to fit under the lid. They can go on my list of favourite ebay sellers.

I'm thinking about auditioning a few of the Linn DS players just out of curiosity and hopefully the Naim dac if they release it soon however they'll have a job to outshine the 7520/4032 combo (And justify the extra cost!)

i may have been banging on about it a bit, but i will just say again the majik ds is very good! sounds really good within my naim system. i would be interested in what it sounds like with the naim dac but at the mo i dont really feel its needed

that said the beresford closes the gap a lot more than it should do for the money and thats with the 4562's

i would love to do a comparison review within the same system but im not sure it would be much cop

just a quick pointer on the linn kit ,from what ik hear the prices go up a bloody barmy 20% 1st may

sorry to hijack the thread, i shall shh now

So, to sum up...

The "TC-7520 SE" will come with a Wolfson DAC and THS4032 op amps.

How much will it cost, Stan, and may I reserve the first one off the boat?

I've run the LT1364 in my modded 7510. A bit grainy right at first, needs some time to run in, then they'll smooth out. Seemed a more solid sound than the 49720 and better definition and speed than the OPA2134. Has anyone tried the AD8066 yet? I like those a lot. Superior channel separation.

Hey thats funny. No opamps installed in the left and right sockets but still i hear music coming from my speakers, though no sound from the headphone. Can somebody explain why?
