Why not wait until the warranty expires before you send the unit off for upgrades? If something would happen to go wrong, Tascam would take one look inside and void your warranty. Just food for thought. By the way, I have the same unit and mine sounds wonderful the way it is. Have you heard another machine with upgrades to compare performance?
Best mod of analog outputs for TASCAM DV-RA1000HD
I recently purchased a TASCAM DV-RA1000HD digital recorder which I intend to use to archive my factory pre-recorded open reel collection, (1000s of reels most of which are collectable), to 24 bit 192 kz sampled PCM digital DVD+RW.
It was suggested tome that I have Joe Wiliams of Audio Upgrades (Carlsbad, Ca.) do the work which is primarily a parts swap replacing op amps, cheap higher grade film caps and film bypass caps for electrolytic in the signal path.
He'll do the job for $250.00, and seems quite knowlegable, but I'd have to ship him the unit and pay shipping costs both ways which will set me back another$75 or so.
I'm also waiting for an estimate from John Hillig of Musical Concepts who does excellent work.
Any others do this work
