[morbid]

Can someone tell me if the modification 3 done on an ADA MP-1 worths? Is it better the for the preamp to remain stock? What other modication can be set on (if their are more and if it worths too)? [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'm not sure what kind of mod you are talking about.

However I certainly wouldn't screw around with an MP-1.

It's not like you can order a new one from the store should something go wrong.


For me, the ADA has a certain sound that fits a certain era, why mess with that. If you want a different sound, get a different pre-amp.

The ADA Depot site also has a list of shops that will work on ADA gear if you're not technically inclined - you know, shops that have the schematics if you don't and such! Since ADA is kaput due to their uninsured factory fire back
when, that's a vital resource to have some places that'll fix 'em!

Ebay is lousy with MP-1's under $200. If you can handle a soldering iron, follow the directions at ADA Depot, and have a serious FEAR OF ELECTRICITY AND FIRE...

..go for it. The mods look fairly simple.

And if ya screw it up - $200 gets ya back to square one!

Re: Mod to an ADA MP-1

go here www.adadepot.com check out the boards and clips, the modded ones sound much better IMO. There are people on the boards that will mod them for you for a fee but they're not hard, just take your time and use good components.
