McCormack DNA-1 or DNA-1 deluxe?

I am looking for a new amp and see several forums which speak highly of McCormack DNA-1 amps. In the used market the average price for a DNA-1 appears to be in the $600-$650 range. The deluxe is going for around $750-$800. Question? Is there enough difference in the sound quality to justify the extra $150-$200 for the Deluxe version?

If I went with a standard DNA-1 now what are my options to upgrade later? Does McCormack offer an upgrade package? How much?

If you're going to buy a McCormack, as good as they are stock, I would greatly recommend getting a modded one (Rev A or better if you can find it). The differences are astounding. Just one of the best amps you can find anywhere. Period.

Enjoy,
