Ayre MX-R upgrade costs?

Tahnks guys, I got quoted 15k which seemed a bit steep but I guess it is what it is

I recall hearing that Ayre increased upgrade prices last December. Oh well, I’m not in a rush.
Good to know about Michael, he was always my go to guy.

Certainly not cheap in a vacuum but a good deal relative to buying a new pair, no? I've used Ayre's upgrade service before and I am a big fan of not having to buy a whole new unit to get the latest and best performance. In the case of the MX-R Twenty, I vaguely call reading a post by Charles Hansen saying that they pretty much replace everything except for the chassis and, maybe, transformer.

Actually, looking at the website, I recall seeing that they replace everything except the connectors and something else- Which seems odd as it wouldn't significantly add to the upgrade cost. Perhaps they still use the same parts in the Twenty version.

From Ayre -
The Twenty upgrade for your MX-R monoblocks is $11,000 a pair US Retail and that includes shipping back to you. It usually takes two weeks or less to get the upgrade completed.
