Re: Carver Professional ZR1600 Amplifier (SS)

JCC, I'm not questioning what you hear as I do believe digital amps are here to stay and will only get better. It is difficult though for me to consider a mod that is 1.5 to 2x the price of the unmodded amp alone. Perhaps it's worth it if the amp ultimately sounds a lot better than a stock amp of the same TOTAL cost. Heck, I'm impressed with the stock HCA-2 so that modded ZR1600 has to be significantly better to be worth while. I wish there was a way to audition a modded product before plopping down your hard earned cash. Thanks for the review. Please keep us posted on your findings when you compare the ZR1600 to some of the high-end amps.
