Maybe you weren't implicitly implying that his mods suck, but that is what your statements convey.
I'm sure you just mispoke/typed.
Let me try and give a bad example but one that seems like what i'm trying to convey.
Pretend for a minute that the UA5's were cars. Say the stock UA5 is a Ford Focus. To me the Oade UA5 is like a Porsche. The Busman is like a Mustang GT. Both are fast cars. Both haul ass. Both are better tuned than the Focus. Neither the Porsche or Mustang suck. But one certainly has the edge. Either one you go with is still better than the regular ole Focus. But again
in my opinion the Busman mods don't hold a sonic candle to the Oade mods. Again just opinion as I am sure there are many who would argue just the opposite.
I attempted to clear my statement up with Mark since he is a friend of Busman's but have not heard back so I assume things are alright.
To add to the Oade mods discussion let me shed a lttle light on what I have on my R4 Pro:
- Warm mod on channels 3&4
- Basic Concert Mod on 1&2
As far as I know I have the only Oade W mod on the R4 Pro. There may be more now but at the time I got Doug's first R4 Pro and we both decided to try a warm mod on it. I feel like the warm mod is a bit smoother than the warm mod I had on my regular R4 but its not as colored as the R4 W mod. I use colored in a good way as that was the intent of the mod. Neither of the Warm mods i've had are as strong as the Warm modded UA5's. Personally I think the Warm UA5 is a smoker of a box especially with the 480's.
The Basic Concert Mod is pretty basic. I for the most part always intended to use channels 1&2 as a digital input from the V3 at all times. I've run the BCM once and did not notice any coloration whatsoever but did notice that it was able to handle high SPL very well. Much better than I expected.
