Thanks Dave,
I've had the wiring loom discussion with a few here on the forum. I can certainly see the benefit both from fewer connections and less wire drag, however, the thought of all that wire hanging on the arm with consequent snag points is intimidating. Or maybe I'm just to anal to have all that wire draped on my ET. That said, I haven't ruled it out and may just go for it one of these days.
By the way I'm approaching the 100 hour mark on the VDH MC One Special and liking it more every day. Still doesn't have that Lyra transparency though. But oh the tonality.
