McCormack DNA-1 or DNA-1 deluxe?


I am looking for a new amp and see several forums which speak highly of McCormack DNA-1 amps. In the used market the average price for a DNA-1 appears to be in the $600-$650 range. The deluxe is going for around $750-$800. Question? Is there enough difference in the sound quality to justify the extra $150-$200 for the Deluxe version?

If I went with a standard DNA-1 now what are my options to upgrade later? Does McCormack offer an upgrade package? How much?

The deluxe version has some parts upgrades to the input stage ect. The LATER versions of the The stock Dna-1 has the upgraded parts as stock from what i understand from what steve said.
Id spend the extra 100 and get the deluxe.
If go to the smc wedsite i think there is some great reading there
