[QUOTE="pwatts, post: 1186250, member: 146"] Fully agreed on right to repair and that the execution is inexcusable. This is everywhere though, including our own beloved Vivid who charges R38k for a midbass and R18k for an aluminium (not Be or something exotic) tweeter that has no protection and so easy to dent until they discovered the concept of a mesh grille recently. One easy mishap and it's more expensive to replace a driver than buying an entire mint used set. Back to the pre, it will be interesting to see how the innards of the pre evolved with time, as the later models have e.g. XLR connectors. Also, Lampizator comes to mind of a product with amazing reputation but looks like a dog's breakfast inside and almost every unit being different inside. I've built prototypes that look better than how those things look, although they have improved lately. [/QUOTE]
