SF Owners - worthwhile to upgrade a Line 1 to SE?


Hi all. I have a Sonic Frontiers Line 1 mated with a Power 2 amp. I've been considering sending it to SF to have it upgraded to the Line 1SE status but the cost seems a bit high considering the resale value of the preamps (which is incredibly low considering how good the pre really is!). Any owners out there who have done the upgrade and if so, is it worth the money. Thanks for all replies.

Mike.

I haven't personally tried the upgrade but my local sonic frontiers dealer says for the price you get a nice new special edition face plate. He recommended changing the stock tubes to the siemens E88cc's that they use in some of the special editions for a better value. Just a thought, made a big difference with mine.
