I read it the same way and think is indeed honorable. *But* I think Vinnie's assessment is for now-- I bet as he and others get to hacking around the Classic and seeing how this affects that and that affects this he/they may come up with a method to mod the Classic to improve the sound *substantially*.

I think the Classic mod is not on the table today. But tomorrow is another day. (Remember he could not find a way to improve the sound of the 5.5 initially and months later that all changed).

My two cents... worth about a penny or so.
