Musical Fidelity A5 modded L 2: Is it worth it??
I have seen an ad for a Musical Fidelity A5 CD player that has level 2 modds done by Parts Connexion. The original A5 was issued in 2005 and retailed for $2500. I have read several positive reviews of this player IN both the original version and the "modified" version.
Besides it is reported outstanding sound, my MAJOR concern is its age and condition. Seller has been very forthcoming about its condition. He sold another MF A5 player on ebay that was modded by Steve Sank.
Would like to hear what the pro/and cons of buying an 8 year old player that was modded a few years ago. Is it worth it compared to other newer players on the market?? There is always the possibility of this player breaking down, and not able to get a new transport or laser for it because they are no longer available from MF
