JVC XV-N512S player (Our Impressions)-
Reference Audio Mods performs High Performance modifications to the ever popular JVC XV-N512S unit to take it to a completely different level of sound, embarassing many $600-$5000+ costing players!!! Order this unit with the Superclock 4 option and watch this little unit smoke players costing over $4000 no problem!! I never thought this was possible and the only way to get great sound is too spend thousands of dollars. Not anymore, Once you hear these units, you will think twice about getting into any fancy cd player....

Talk about a sleeper! This unit retails for $149, and can be found on-line or at for around $119. The unit stock sounds as good as any $300-600 I've heard. With these mods, this unit is taken to a very FAR level, embarassing so many other players on the market, it is a complete NO BRAINER and everyone should have one either in their system or as an backup for their main big rig!!! It is comparable to many $1.5-2K costing players or better when modded! Get the fully modded machine with the Superclock 4 option and RAM Custom Battery Supply for the SC3 and you will hear more music than out of the $11,000 Linn Unidisc 1.1!!!

This unit plays DVD's, CD's, CD-R's, CD-RW's, MP3's, JPEG's. The only drawback is that this unit will not play SACD's, which is fine. The nice thing is the mods have a good affect on video as well as we focus on the power supply of the unit in our mod package. The end result is sound of a much much more costly and also modified unit. Please take a look at the options as well. Now its time to get that expensive sound for a complete fraction of the cost!

The Modifications

Modifications Descriptions ($450 standard mod)

Rubycon ZL/ZA capacitors-
We replace an abundance of voltage rail decouple/bypass capacitors in all critical areas with Rubycon ZL/ZA series caps! Very Very Nice improvement! A HUGE change in total sonic tonality and character, the stock caps are very bad! The Rubycon ZA/ZL sound superior to even the very best Blackgates (offering more speed, openness and vividness in the soundstage) and offer more ripple current and less impedance which makes them optimal in this use.

Custom RAM Exotic Ultra High Speed Diode Bridge-
We replace the stock noisy/glary/grainy rectifiers with a handmade RAM Exotic version made out of ultra fast SMD diodes. These are superior sounding to the Harris versions and offer Less glare, grain and harshness! Nice sound! Better Video as well! These are wired into the circuit with Audio Consulting Silver Wire. Very little metal is used, this helps out the eddu current issues and give better resolution and bass.

Exotic Jensen 4-pole Electrolytic cap in power supply-
We install an Exotic Jensen 4-pole Electrolytic capacitor in the power supply to replace the stock smoothing cap. This cap has an unique ability of reducing power supply distortion while at the same time remaining very fast and natural. Such a clear and audible improvement delivering more resolution, texture, dynamics, and liveliness. We wire this with Exotic Audio Consulting 24awg silver wire w/natural unbleached cotton tubing. The cap betters the best blackgates and any other cap on the market used in this particular position in the mod. This cap costs more than half the cost of the acutal stock player!!!! This even makes video looks better as well!

Analog Output Stage upgrades-
We delete the stock Analog Output stage (all caps, analog filtering, etc) in favor for our own version using Rubycon Capacitors and silver wiring.

WBT NextGen Female Copper RCA Connectors -
These are the best sounding RCA connectors in the industry and take the sound to a higher level. These are eddy current free designs and drastically improve the integrity of the signal over the stock rca connectors on the unit.

EXTRA PERFORMANCE OPTIONS FOR EVEN BETTER SOUND!!

Audiocom Superclock 4-S Reference Clock Upgrade ($295 Free Install!!)-
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! THIS WILL TAKE THE UNIT FAR BEYOND $3000-5000 PLAYERS!
We add a reference quality jitter reduction circuit called a Superclock 3 , this a major improvement in overall sound! This is like adding Nitrous to a car, huge improvement!! This replaces the master clock and offers much lower jitter rate than the stock cmos type oscillator. Expanded soundstages and accurate instrument definitions for example are the many outcomes of this major mod component. Breathtaking performance is now possible!! Please give the unit well over 300 hours to break-in with this clock. Bonus! WE ARE NOW INCLUDING A PROPRIETARY C37 TWEAK TO THE CLOCK BOARD AND WE MAKE A VERY SPECIAL SILVER WIRE CABLE FOR CLOCK CONNECTION. THE RESULTS ARE AMAZING!

RAM Custom Superclock 4-S Battery Supply Upgrade ($495 Installed)-
We provide a nice custom wooden enclosure that houses advanced high speed batteries to power the Superclock 3. This includes a custom silver wire umbilical cord, charger and instructions for use. The improvements with this mod take the performance several steps higher, offering much more resolution and dynamics. No loss of resolution or dynamics because now the clock is on batteries and the effects of power supply noises and harmonics are ultimately gone. A must if you need the most of out of your JVC XV-N512S.
