1twekr, you have asked this question in many places already. Please read the above posts. Quite a few people already stated that the new PPP is better than the old stuff.
The PPP do not do balanced anymore, but so what? Balanced power is NOT the only game in town.
These products are all designed in the USA, and the electronic parts being used were chosen by PSA. What is the different it made whether they were assembled in the State or in China? Are you worried about the sound quality or build quality?
I have owned a few P500 which were made in the State and they all need service. I have two PPP and two Quintessence since day one and NONE of them have problem yet.
It seems that you are waiting for someone to say something that reinforce your thinking!!!
