Testimonials:

"The
SWL 9.0 modeled itself closely on high-resolution transistor sound,
i.e. neutral down the middle. The LS-36.5 stays the course but digs deep
into the space drawer of dimensionality and layering where tubes hold
the aces. It's really amazing how far Dan Wright has come in a short
time as a manufacturer. At its price, the LS-36.5 is a very strong
statement to make both its designer and future owners proud….the LS/PS
36.5's low gain and very gradual volume taper coupled to its exceptional
noise behavior is simply perfect…….If you view audio important enough
to warrant long-term investments into personal gratification and
listening indulgence, the LS/PS 36.5 combo is a guaranteed high-yield
stock. Dan Wright's math continues working because the sonic performance
advance of going offboard with the power supply and more than doubling
it to provide each channel with what both had together before; plus
more... there's a still solid return on investment you won't strain to
hear and appreciate. ModWright now means more than high value. With this
duo, it means statement effort for all but the financially completely
liberated."

"Insofar
as system matching goes, the ModWright 36.5bwould be a terrific choice
for 99% of digital & solid-state systems that are in need of
musicality to facilitate long term listening satisfaction. And
surprisingly, the Modwright 36.5 also told me about faults that I never
knew existed in gear that is much more expensive than it is; that, my
dear reader, is what this reviewer calls "wildly exceeding
expectations". Musically satisfying in all the ways that serve the
music, the ModWright 36.5 is a dandy of a preamp."
