If I get one with the opti mod, will it still have a coax too?

Yes.  The opti-mod replaces the word clock.  S/PDIF via coax and XLR and AES/EBU outputs are unaffected.

I thought Doug would convert the flavor of a modded UA-5 for sub $100? ie a P-mod could be changed to a T-Mod for like $60. Am I wrong or has this changed? I just can't imagine he would charge $200+ to make that swap!    ???

I think he will convert the Pmod to a Tmod for 65$ but to add the +mod is around 135$. I dont think this even inlcudes shipping

To upgrade a Pmod to a T+mod is $225 plus shipping each way.  Confirmed about 2 weeks ago.

well the prices have changed a little but in the end its the upgrade to the + mod that pushes the price up the most.

OK, I missed that it was going from just P to T+. Makes sense now.

DUMPSTAPHUNK!  Ya'll.  Funk should be a good test of the new gear, and the Funkbox is ideal for taping, in my opinion if the sound guy is even half decent.

Yep  ;D

Taping got me good.  I have only being running a rig for well...under 10 weeks, but I have gotten 3 festies and like 20 other shows.  I'm thouroughly obsessed.
