Best Sonos ZP-80 Mod?

I have received my Cullen modded ZP80 yesterday morning. Was shipped over here to Germany without problems.

The first impression is just stunning. I set up the Cullen ZP80 and the standard one as two zones so I can switch directly for comparison and the difference is just amazing and much more obvious then I had ever expected. Much wider soundstage, even most complex music (Mahler, Wagner operas) sound transparent and not as "muddy" as with the standard ZP. On Jazz, the Keith Jarrett Trio come accross as if they were sitting in front of me in the living room!

I will now have a serious look at the PS Audio DAC as modded by Rick Cullen for the next stage of sound improvement.

Finally, Sonos convenience and high end sound seem to come together :-))

Ivanfx,

I guess the focus in your words is "unless i'ts done properly"

My Cullen ZP80 is 96khz and it's improvement rather than degradation.
