Who mods the EAR 834P

Rdenoble,

It is not harsh at all. You should have been here to receive the TT I bought from Brian!
No wonder the FedEx guy ran away after leaving it on my doorstep!
Brian did NOTHING to rectify the situation. It took me months to get the parts I needed through distributors.

It is harsh when it comes with no explanation. Now that you've explained yourself, the evaluation seems justified. Nonetheless my experience with them was fine as I detailed above. As so often YMMV.

I've got a modded EAR 834P and was able to do extended comparison to my old unmodded one. Night and day, even that I loved the unmodded one. Also NOS Mullard CV4004's are fantastic. That's what I settled on.

I bought this particular 834p already modded and it's an extensive mod, but I don't know who did it so can't recommend source alas. It looks like the mod is very substantial upgrade of parts. I can email you pics of unmodded vs modded if you like, it's a kick.
