Hi Earl - thanks for keeping up with this thread ....

Yes, I have been patient and the reason is that my 3100's sound just great as they are and thus there is no burning desire to change them. I also am not really interested in any kind of experimentation.. little too old for that... but am certainly interested in wanting to do an upgrade ala the 275nd.

I am not so sure about outing the titanium diaphragm to replace it with the aquaplased one as I envision possible problems there. As Zilch noted above it might no be as easy as it sounds. Also, I would then end up with a modified 3100 rather than an 'official' MK II. I think I would rather wait untill I get another 275nd complete and then do the swap. I am however,very interested in what you have to say about using the MKii network with the 2426 though.

If I read you correctly I could build the network now, use it with the 2426 and then on that great day when I pick up the second 275nd, I'm in business. Would the MKii network require much modifying to work with the 2426?
