Do Spectron Amps have faulty switching modulators?


I'm in the process of buying the new Musician 111 MK.2 ultra
with the upgrades but have been told by several Audiophiles
that their modulators are not reliable and break down suddenly. If this is true, is that a current problem or with
previous generation amps?

Audiofeil. I am not out to trash Spectron and like most,
am well aware of their history since 1974. I am not a dealer or related to any company. One of the sources is a former Spectron retail dealer out of New York who dropped the line two years ago. I just wanted to confirm his statement and check it out. The answers to my question confirms these statements are indeed rumors and I will move forward with full confidence and purchase the Amp.
No need to make a snap judgment just because I question
a switching device.
Audiofeil, I had the pleasure spending an hour on the phone
yesterday, the 16th, with Simon Torcher at Spectron, who is a co-designer with John and is the Director of sales.
However, the response by some on this thread I started is
over emotional by the Spectron Police. Talk about touchy
feely! Cool your jets guys! At this point, I am convinced that the modulator issue is false, and there really is no point of anyone responding any further, unless your just out to make hay.
