The bass weakness mentioned in the TAS review was quickly addressed by George Kaye in all subsequent 401HR amplifiers and is now a non-issue. I don't recall what exactly was the fix, but Georg Kaye will explain if asked.

The bass in my system is not overripe, tubby nor lacking in extension. If it was, I wouldn't own the amplifier.


Here's a snippet from George Kaye's response to Jacob Heilbrunn's TAS review, which can be found in its entirety at the end of this .pdf reprint:

"Mr. Heilbrunn is exactly right about the bass.  We’re always looking for ways to improve the Moscode Experience, and we found one in the output stage biasing circuit.  The new bias design extends the ultra low bass response by a factor of two resulting in improved bass definition and punch. This improved bias circuit can be found in every 401HR we sell."
Yup. That's it. That's the fix.

Tvad,

Did you purchase the Moscode? What are you using for amplification now?
