Did you mean MOH Reference? or Max? I think reference module is standard with Max, isn't it? (So you can't get a Max with any other module.)

There are 4 different Maxes, but they all have the reference module and improved power supply from the MOH and case.

The 4 different versions are :

HeadRoom Max - Dual Input
$1599.00

HeadRoom Max - Loop Out
$1599.00

HeadRoom Max - Dual Input, Stepped Attenuator
$1887.00

HeadRoom Max - Loop Out, Stepped Attenuator
$1887.00

Kelly, you're right. I'm going to order the Max with stepped attenuators and loop out. But not just yet.

Ross, when you do it would be really useful if you could post any comparative reviews. I don't think anyone has even been able to compare, for example, Max with stepped attenuator to Max without. There's nearly $300 worth of mods there and no one has AB compared. I know that would involve Headroom sending an extra Max along at some point but I'm sure you can work something out.

Those phase switches become moot if you have them at the source, for example, as I do on my work system -- Audio Alchemy DDE. You should theoretically only need one set of phase switches somewhere along your signal chain.

I have a really hard time telling the difference. If I didn't think they were going through the same signal path, I'd think that whichever one was burned in less, was the one I preferred. It's that subtle.
