I recently bought a Musical Fidelity Tri Vista CD-Player.
The sound was ok bt not great. Also the usual modifications brought no real big improvement.
Than I exchanged the internal oscillator for an external clock -in this case a PTS 160 ( http://www.programmedtest.com/pts160.html ) There was a real vast improvement!
Whoever aarround here is fit to find the oscillator in a cd player and the right connections should really try this version. Also any other low phase-noise, high stability generator, like HP 3325B, HP 8642A , HP 8662A could be used.
Depends which oscilator is taken , the price would be lower than one of the "High-End-Superclocks" - they are normally specified maximum 5 ppm.
A good source liehe the PTS 160 is 0,003ppm! And look at the signal quality also!

Good look with trying!
Best regards
Stephan
