That’s my small setup with MAXONIC full range field coil loudspeakers and tubes Concert Fidelity amplifiers. The CEC TL 3 3.0 was upgraded by Masataka Tsuda. Hi added the DAC with tubes output. I use CEC for playing CD and streaming digital music also. As digital source I use Apple TV with linear power supply.

Introducing my small tube setup with Ray Brown Trio. Sorry for my not quite correct English in this video.

Congratulations for the sound.
Could I ask you what type of upgrading do you put to the Cec TL3 3.0?
I am going to buy the same transport and I am curious about how could be upgraded.
 
Thanks! The Concert Fidelity DAC with tubes output was added inside. The upgrade was made by Masataka Tsuda from Concert Fidelity.
It was limited quantity but maybe still possible to order. Also it has SPDIF digital input for streaming server connection.
 
Thank you.
I already have an external DAC and I'm not interested in integration inside the transport.

I had supposed that the upgrade could concern the power supply or other aspects of the transport.
