Denon 2900 mods for a newbie

[pmckeealaska]

Hello all,

This is my first thread on here and I'm in bad need of assistance. First off, and I cant be clear enough about this, I have NEVER done any electrical work or modifications of any kind....none. However, I am an audiophile fanatic and have reached the peak in terms of what I can afford to buy in new equipment. My primary digital source is a Denon DVD-2900. I use it only for high rez music (SACD and DVD-A) and the occasional redbook CD. I do not use it for video (have a PS3 for that). I am only interested in it as a musical transport. I have a 5.1 system consisting of a full line of LSi Polk Audio speakers (LSi25's for fronts, LSiC center and LSiFX's for surrounds). I've read some of the mods done on 2900's here already but I am more than confused on how to proceed. So much seems to be out there for modification. I have about $200-$300 to spend for mods. What can I do for that money and is there a step by step description (preferrably with pictures!) to help me along? Also, a list of tools required (soldering gun, etc) would also be helpful.

Sorry for such a rudimentary question, but I hope I can invest a little time and money for a noticeable sonic improvement from my 2900. THANKS!

These are the parts list pulled from Denon 2900 Modded. They don't tell me the address they pull them from. My email is d052057@yahoo.com, if you find something that lead us to do the mods on Denon DVD-2900.
