Title: Stereomour II upgrades

The unused halves of the 12AT7s will accommodate future upgrades. We have several cool upgrades for this kit coming down the pike.

OK, I gotta ask. We are coming up on a year since the Stereomour was introduced. I know you guys have been extremely busy releasing new products and generally trying to keep up with your workload. Can someone at Bottlehead give us a teaser as to what you guys have in mind for the upgrades for the Stereomour II?

I'm guessing something similar to the BeeQuiet Stepped Attenuator Upgrade. And maybe some sort of a shunt regulator that uses the unused triodes on the 12AT7's? Soft start option perhaps? Am I close? Way off base?

Thanks,

Tom

We will be getting into those soon. Your instinct is good, we're looking at a stepped attenuator upgrade, shunt regulation of the driver stage, and DC Filaments.

OK, you got me. I jumped on the leap year 2016 offer. Thank you very much.
