Bubo Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Beautiful and thoughtful restoration. Why not have a prototype house build out 100 pre-amp boards and 200 amp replacement boards and a standard BOM using what you learned? I've often wondered why Mc doesn't do this as a restoration service....... Always a marketing guy........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered why Mc doesn't do this as a restoration service....... Always a marketing guy........ Good question. The solid-state amps today are vastly more complex than the first-generation units. Their business model is primarily selling new, solid-state amps. Having a revised solid-state design (a few op-amps and tweaks) that's basically 50+ years old sound as good as the hardware they make today would be a marketing nightmare. The "sweet sound" of a hand-full of transistors vs. 2000+ transistors is said by no one. It would be problematic, contradictory. And thank you!
