Moreplay add ons - were there still any upgrades planned?

[vtecths]

For me I didn't notice the MorePlay upgrades are available!
So just a heads up for all others that were still waiting; like myself!

Much looking forward to this build.

Appreciate the heads-up, Tom!

I must have snuck in just in time for an order as well. Here's to a nice holiday project 🤓

Good to know! Will make this a winter project.

We were only able to get 15 of the rather unique Alps Blue MN taper balance pots with a center detent, hence ony 15 kits in this initial run. More pots are on backorder and the ETA is around the end of January.

Well - the rest of us will just have to wait til then - and be envious of all the reports of greatness !  😁

This morning I thought I'd better order an upgrade kit today in case they sell out - doh!!

I'm glad for you guys that there's that much demand, but...

[Doc B.]

There were plenty in stock at our distributor for an initial run when we were first getting ready to write the manual. Unfortunately by the time we actually found time to write the manual and pull the parts list together for an initial parts order the supply had been depleted. We could have made the decision to put the release on hold until the next round of pots came in, but there was so much buzz about this kit that we thought it best to release what we could. Delivery times are often pretty conservative from that distributor. Hopefully we will see the pots before their ETA.

Sigh, that moment when you realize the thread you've been following for months has gone into junk, along with the newsletter.

Thanks, microsoft outlook, I love you so. 

What's another few months?

[Bateman147]

No worries Dan - we can wait.  You guys definitely made the right decision putting out the first ones you had.

Looking forward to hearing reports from those that got in on this batch!

The first half dozen upgrade kits are packing today. We are awaiting some mica insulators that got delayed in shipping. Once those arrive we will be packing and shipping the balance of the first run kits.

Eileen and I will be away from the office for a few days early next week. All other orders are caught up as of this afternoon.

This is one upgrade I’m very hesitant to do. The stock Moreplay has some real magic to it that I would hate to lose. I’ll be interested to see what people think.

This upgrade barely influences the second harmonic but really suppresses the higher order harmonics that aren't as pleasant to listen to.

I too was too slow to order as we were on vacation and thought, "Well I'll just order when we get home"...oh well, hopefully will get in on the next run!

Thanks for the explanation on why the small first run.

Thanks,
Chuck
