Q: I have the level 5 mod on my 777 from Warren West Coast US Agent] and am wondering if it makes sense for me to keep up with the upgrades?
A: I believe it is - I have had L5 in my own 777ES for over a year in a developmental form which meant I couldn't play RBCD's any more - and while I felt the sonic improvement in SACD playback FAR outweighed the inconvenience of no RBCD playback, it wasn't something that could really be marketed!
