Upgrading your Maxed Out Home

obsessed headphone geeks at your service.

The stepped attenuator is an available upgrade for the Maxed Out Home. We use
the Nobel potientiometer on our high-end amps, and while its performance is very
good, we consider the stepped attenuator to be the finest available today.  You
can also upgrade the premium electronics module to a reference module, offering
significant sound quality improvement.  Please call us for details about these upgrade
paths.
