Mark,
What is it about the MkV that makes it sound comparable to the
MkII? I know it had a larger flywheel and an sms2 - But MP talked
about electronic differences. What were these exactly and were
they fitted to later M400s? If it sounded so good why isn't this
available to us as an option now? Why isn't this incorporated into
the new MKIV instead of the valve amp?
Confused!
