Topic: Interesting talk with Audio Upgrades

[Tim]

From reading this thread I think that it is true that some mics are mod-able and some are not. The reason why he does a mod or does not do a mod is not really the issue though.

I think JW's only agenda is good sound. After talking with him a bit more, he said that both the 460 and the MCA SP1 were crap before the mods so....

I think I'm gonna save my $$ and wait for a pair of 451/452/460's pops up on ebay or the like. More toys!

My only guess is that he loosely throws around the term "crap"! He might feel his upgrades are significant but many of the mic's he desicribes as "crap" prior to the mod is just not crap.

I think the way to look at this is that he is saying he can improve on any mic's performance that he lists in his mod section, thus making the unmoded mic sound veiled in comparison and thus when given the option between the two an easy choice. Whether this is true or not I don't know since I have never heard a shoot out comparison.

...having actually done business with him, i would definitely agree. i'd be really surprised to hear differantly by anyone who has talked with him or had work done by him.
