Instrument separation and detail were breath taking
The modded 8003 had more of everything. Highs were smoother and less "digital". Cymbal decay was superior.Instrument separation and detail were breathtaking. What used to be a splashy mess of brush overdrums on Diana Krall's "Cry Me A River" now actually sounded like brush over drums. Bass, oh thebass! Punchy and deep with lot of oomph. Less boomy and bloated than the "stock" 8003.
