"You are just trying to make money off his accomplishments"?!? You have got to be kidding. I spend maybe 50 hours developing a mod and maybe do a handfull of them. Boy, I sure am going to make a lot of money? I just want to see what is possible and hear what is possible. Don't you get it? It is about possiblilites. If his stuff is so good, then I won't be able to make it sound better and then there will be no mods. If I make it sound better than it shows that it was not the best it could be...Duh!As my good friend always says. "it will all come out in the wash". Meaning of course, that the truth will be known in time....about what is possible with what and what kinds of execution are being done by Meitner and what can be done, if anything, to improve his gear. By the way, the guess about the construction on the Meitner gear comes from talking on the phone to Ed for over an hour several years ago, looking at pictures of the insides of his preamp, talking to someone who described seeing the board for the SACD 1000 and heresay about what Ed told someone. Obviously, I have not seen the insides of the Meitner. Maybe it is full of super regulators, diodes, caps, resistors, discrete Class A stages, minimal signal paths, Teflon filter caps, damping, shielding, Bybee filters, Quantum filters, Cryoed, ERS material, silver nude wires, Superclocks, everything mounted on Oak or Mapler wood pieces, etc...I doubt it!
I hope you sell a ton of them, I am sure they are worth the money (till something cheaper better comes along). But if you think the stock Meitner gear cannot be improved and beaten for much less money.....well.....then you live in a different reality than I do.
Of course, there is always the chance that a unit is damaged during modification. If it is something I did, then I fix it or pay to have it fixed. The customer never pays for my mistake. The trouble is, that certain machines (like the Philips 1000)are known to be problematic and may fail on the bench because they just fail, not because of something the modder has done. Responsibility is always number one. To respond in a loving manner is always the most responsible thing we can do. The Golden Rule, rules. Love is the Law. The customer is me.
