    Here are the things that are done. The binding posts on this one were not done. I talked to Dave Belles and he said some of the early ones did not have that done. They are available from Sound Connection in FL for $67

    Removal of original large slabs of damping material from all internal chassis surfaces;
    Application of Cromolin constrained-layer damping material to strategic points in the chassis as a replacement for the original heavy and soft damping material;
    Replacement of original plastic-tipped binding posts with deluxe gold-plated oxygen-free copper binding posts;
    Replacement of stock transformer mounting bolt and pads with a proprietary sandwich isolation system that effectively decouples the transformer from the chassis without introducing shipping problems;
    Application of O2 Blocker to all non-soldered connections to maintain maximum performance for many years. O2 Blocker cleans and seals electrical connections and stays effective for many years.

    PRICE DROP $495 That is well below the going rate.
