I just wanted to give everyone an update on where things stand RE mods, preamps and Dan's state of mental health
.
We are JUST about done with the Denon 3910 mods, but I have been stretched VERY thin lately.
Some of you have been patiently waiting for us/me to complete various projects that I have not been able to hand off to my skilled technicians. Because I have been stretched thin, these projects are also taking longer than anticipated and for this I apologize.
Sony 999ES mods, Sony 9000ES mods, Denon 2900 mods and our other existing mods (current offering) are not impacted by my busy schedule and are moving along at a good rate.
I have three of my technicians JUST building preamps and this is going well, but we are still catching up to existing backorders. We have sold 41 units to date and I expect the first 50 piece production run to be sold by the end of this month if not much sooner. The second production run is already under way, but the price for these units WILL be at the higher final price of $1800/$2200 for SWL 9.0 and SWL 9.0SE models.
I am personally stretched thin because I am managing production of the preamp, taking care of projects that only I can do, designing/finallizing the new Denon 3910 mods, arranging for reviews of our preamp, designing the DAC and Phono stage to be released this year and...oh yeah, we are moving everything to WA. An offer on a property was just accepted and I am in Real Estate Hell for the immediate future.
I share all of this just so that those who are waiting will understand the delay, and to let others know that most of our production work is not directly impacted as I have skilled technicians who are all dedicated to specific production areas, in which they have become most skilled and efficient.
The Denon 3910 mods will be available ASAP as I know that many are waiting on this also.
Thanks for reading and for understanding.
Dan W.
