I could not get the M700s to UPS fast enough. These things were well worth the upgrade. Better in ever way.

I did the same thing a few months ago and agree. What’s your preamp?

Congratulations! It truly is an under rated piece of kit.
Now comes the fun bit.
Tube rolling! The Psavane are good but you can do much much better.
I’m running the rather rare Mazda 5 Star tubes which are rather good.
Power cord rolling. I got some rather fat cords off Ali Express which are a Krell copy. Beats the stock standard cords supplied with the amplifiers. PS Audio recommend their own cords too.
Enjoy the endless power (yes, power corrupts).

When the original tubes in my M1200’s lost their magic, I replaced them with Mullard (new tubes, not new-old-stock), and am a happy camper.

I have the M 700’s. What did you dislike (detest?) about them? Thx.

I went from the M700s to the 1200s. The tonal character on the 1200s in the upper midrange and treble is way smoother. In my opinion, by listening, the 700s have that class D edginess, the 1200s do not.
