Tom,

I'm very pleased with the mod.

Steve Huntley replaced the original wonder caps with Cardas Caps, replaced key resistors & also installed a 20 amp EIC power connector on the back. The 130se had a fixed power cord to begin with.

He also recommend that I use the 20 amp Shunyata Python power cord. I did that and the power cord difference was huge.

Steve Huntley is a great person to deal with.

If you need any further info drop me an email.

thanks

Eldo,

I'm currently using the Super Eclipse with an ARC VT130se (upgraded by Great Northern Sound) and a Bat VK30se.

I'm stunned by the sound - very open, dynamic, and pin point imaging and unbelievable sound stage. Prior to this I had a Spectral / Proac system.

The 14 ohm load doesn't seen to be a problem. I sent an email to Coincident & they recommended using the 16 ohm & then the 8 ohm tap off the amp.
