Hey guys. Yes I got the Metis upgraded to magnum status. It took about a month from sending it there to getting it back. They even sent it back in a new box. I did take before and after pics if the inside, but I’m not sure how to post the pics here. I guess I can post them to my system page. From what I can tell they upgraded all the stuff they quoted including adding 2 larger coupling caps that weren’t in there before. The sound is more open and the dynamics increased noticeably. There is more bass slam and a quieter background overall. It really sounds like a new, better pre-amp. They sent a pair of new issue Tung Sol tubes with it as well. I didn’t try them though, I went with a pair of NOS Sylvania 6ns7W black base tubes. I also changed the power cord from a Signal cable magic to a JPS Labs PAC lite cable. I feel it was $450 plus shipping well spent. I really like it and plan on keeping it for a long time. I posted before and after pics on my system page.
