WBT Nextgens

In case anyone's thinking about doing this, I can confirm that the results were indeed worthwhile. I put a pair of the silver wbt jacks into my rogue amp at the weekend and there was a definite improvement in transparency and palpability. the dac's going back to the manufacturer shortly for a blackgate cap conversion and they'll fit the second pair. the only caveat i'd note is that you need to be careful inserting the eichmann bullet plugs so as not to displace the central section of the jack.

I've now had my dax returned from the mods and it's still burning in. This unit was previously fitted with rca midlines and AS remarked the nextgens were notably superior. This is easily verifiable as the unit has two pairs of rca outputs for biamping and we ony replaced one set. The magnitude of improvement transcends the suggestion that the connectors may be dirty and is of a similar magnitude to fitting bullet plugs to an interconnect. Sonic difference is as previously reported; greater clarity which takes one a step or two closer to the music. Verdict? Expensive but worthwhile. This is very much a hobby of incremental improvements and these take you closer to music.
