why is it time to change .....?
Hi Don,
I purchased both units already used several years ago, the newest of the units was manufactured in 2000 and the other one in '98. The RAM has failed in the 98 model and can't be replaced, and the VR is showing signs of the same issue. Also, the knobs on the units are poorly designed and seem to fail after a year or so of use. The main output/volume knob has been re-soddered several times and that's getting more difficult to do.
I take the Noah's Ark approach to my equipment (must have 2 of everything) and support for both units isn't getting any stronger, you know?
No complaints, I've really enjoyed both units. I haven't upgraded this part of my rig in a long time and with the new/improved/more powerful options out there, its time to pick one.
