The latest incarnation of the Levinson 326S now has a Nelco board rather than Arlon. Does anyone know why and when the change was implemented and what sonic improvement this material produces for the 326S?
Just spoke to Richard at Harman....he says no sonic differences, with the Nelco actually being a little more durable. The change was made due to stricter regulations abroad....hmm, I also think costs come into play here.
RoHS compliance plays a large factor here (lead free), which is now mandatory everywhere I believe. Besides, I believe that the Nelco 25N has been replaced by an RoHS complant product.
