| Musical Concepts amplifier modifications upgrades I have an Adcom GFP 565 that was modded by MC - elite mod and a Hafler XL 280 with PA7 Elite mods including TP 202 and 220M. The sound is fantastic. Worth every penny. | |

| Digital Front end for Dummies Tried BS Node 2i standalone to preamp. Sounded good but not great. Ran coax to Dac magic. Much better sound. Wasn't bad on it's own but definitely much better with a Dac. | |

Regnar provides rebuilds for the woofers and midrange and last I checked scanspeak still has the tweeters in production 30 plus years ... |
