McCormack DNA-1 Gold or DNA-225

gdnrbob....the ebay amp is the one I went with....thanks for the tip. Everything just fell into place today, he accepted my offer, and the seller who is a very cool guy, lives about 30 min from SMC and took it over to Steve today.

Steve said it was a mono amp and I missed that, wasn't in description but it's a bridged mono so he said converting to stereo would not be a problem.

Going to get the gold revision along with the upgraded transformer.

I wasn't looking at a DNA-1 but seems like this is the one to go with. Can hardly wait to get it back and running.

Congrats!  As a long-time DNA-0.5 Rev A (now considering upgrade myself) owner I'm sure you'll be thrilled.  Keep us posted once you get it broken in. 

Good for you dyl71.
Steve/Pat are converting my DNA-1's to monoblocks as we speak.
As I said, he is going to remove everything, so whether it works or not, or a monoblock is not an issue.
I had the gold revision done a year or two ago, when I found another DNA-1-non working, I decided to go for monoblocks.
It is going to take some time. Steve auditions everything before he sends it out. In fact, he usually adds small upgrades as new things come his way. Just be ready to be wowed.

+1!!! gdnrbob  Good lord, those amps are going to be awesome.  Congrats!  Please let us know of your joy when they arrive.

Wanted to update this, as mentioned earlier, it will be a DNA-1 with a fresh Gold revision, along with the plitron transformer, wire upgrade, diodes, and maybe something smaller along the way...but for the most part that's where we're at.

Been itching to try one of these amps for awhile, little more than I planned as far as budget but the consensus is it will be money well spent.....can hardly wait now....:).
