Form email I got from John Wright “PS, In case you care, the Bidat gets better all the time with fresh updates ….I mean it will sound broken in comparison. I have made some very good changes to the power supply and the output stage that have made it more transparent and with real bass now.  It's even more musical.  And no, I didn't just change the op-amps and caps.  I made some actual circuit changes and further simplified things.” That is tempting and I would probably go for it. Bidat does have own unique sound that woks in my view remarkably well with very aggressive had-reading CEC TL0. Having Pacific and Lavry Gold I still have Bidat paired with TL0 and frankly no motivation to change anything. The lowest bass was always Bidat’s weakest point and if John found a way to get more or it then it might be very good. Did anybody exposed recently own Bidat to the most resent modification and can corroborate on John comments?

From an email I just got from the site’s visitor:

"I got my bidat re-modded by John about three months ago and a friend of mine had his done last month. We are both pleased with the changes. Mine already had the super mod package and his had no previous mods. The latest mods strike me as more "analogue." Break in continues to be lengthy for John's mods. The unit didn't settle until about 150 hours. During that time, it was very disconcerting. Some recordings sounded like they'd been "re-mixed." Fortunately, everything returned to normal but with improvements in bass (more tautness and more extension), less digital harshness and an even wider and deeper soundstage...."
