    ONKYO ND-S1

     

     

    The upgrade reigns in the overly aggressive treble and upper mid band peaks + adding extra weight to the bass and a superb foot tapping flow to the music.

    Customer comments -

     

    Hi Brent,

     

    Just a quick update regarding the Onkyo ND-S1 iPod dock you upgraded for

    me recently.

     

    First of all, I received the dock and the Ultra PSU last Monday without any problems. Secondly, I'm happy with the quality of the work that was done and the service that you provided. Finally - and most importantly - the improvement in the sound quality was immediately noticeable: everything sounded more 'immediate' - which may be due to the improved timing provided by the new clock - and I'm hearing more detail than before. Furthermore, the bass notes sound deeper and better defined.

    Overall, I'm very satisfied with the final results, and I would happily recommend other ND-S1 owners to have the upgrades carried out.

     

    Best regards,

     

    Ray
