New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010

Just received my new Basis Exclusive 2010. Wow is all I can say. Third time is a charm. The previous two versions were world class so it's hard to see how it could be improved but yes it's an improvement. Still running balanced inputs but tempted to run single ended into the new WBT RCAs now available.

Will most additional impressions after a few more days of run in.

The version '2010' has also MM inputs [omited from 2005(?)/ 2009]. From an employee by ASR I heard that when using
balanced in one should use RCA out. But the reasons are to
technical for me. He got this information from Scheafer.
I own the 2009 version and agree with Vandermeulen.

Dear Fm540i, In his emails to me Scheafer mentioned only 'more adjustments possibilitys' in the '2010' model but not other mods to '2009'modeel. He was particulary proud of the fact that the model 2010 is the same price as 2009 model(4600 Euro in Germany).
The reason for the 'strange' suggestion: balanced in RCA out seems to be the kind of IC's he used in both;the Basis as well the Emitter.So,I assume,this applys only to this 'combo'.
Regards,
