Upgrades Etc.
YOU SHIP US YOUR OLDER MODEL, AND WE REPLACE THE INTERNAL PCB (Printed Circuit Board).
ALSO:
Add a Mono Switch (send to DLabs)
Upgrade your Jack Panel (send to DLabs)
Replace the Front Panel (change color - you bolt it on yourself).
Note: As of 11/2/24 we have raised the price on the Silver and lowered it back down on Black because of changes in supply chain and work process.
and for international orders only, you can have us remove the front panel and declare it as a lower value for Customs (see info in our FAQ page)

*Here is how Upgrade pricing works:
YOU MAIL US YOUR OLD UNIT, WE REMOVE THE INTERNAL PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD, AND REPLACE THE PCB WITH A NEW UNIT. YOUR CHASSIS IS RE-USED, AS WELL AS YOUR REAR PANEL INPUT/OUTPUT JACKS. We will strive to duplicate your existing LED configuration to the extent possible. Therefore the update is the level of electrical and sonic performance OF the higher model but with your existing configuration. (Changes to configuration such as upgrading of jacks can be done at the same time as the PCB exchange, for additional cost).
Turnaround time expected: 2 to 4 weeks and is not guaranteed.
UPGRADES: Pricing in $USD as of 1/19/24. You pay to ship the existing to us; Return shipping TO you is not included but is not excessive at flat USD + $20 for domestic USA clients, and we include new factory box packaging if needed.
FRONT PANELS: We sell you the front panel (presumably, a different color than the one you currently have) and you install it yourself, with our directions and an included hex key (and your own Philips screwdriver).
Pre ~July 2021 models will receive a new silk-screened front panel at no cost (if not already updated). If your rear panel is not silk-screened, we will re-use what is there, although, depending upon condition, we may update it, at our discretion, and with no obligation. A new silk-screened rear panel is available for extra cost. A new model number and serial number will be assigned to your ‘newly refreshed’ unit. Note: Upgrades from MM-5->MM5A and MM6->MM6B are not offered by DLabs. New MM5A only available on eBay, not on our website.
