Is the DA2 DAC available for upgrading yet?
Speaking of updates performed by McIntosh dealers, is it a after the sale service, ie free, or for a fee. I bought a D1100 at Magnolia Best Buy and I was quoted $300 for them to update the firmware.

It would be a disastrous decision by the company if they don't come through with the digital upgrades. It's been a huge selling point for their preamps and integrated amps. I suspect they will but you'll have to take it to dealer to get the firmware updates and the module. It won't be something you can do at home. My best guess is the upgrades will be 2+ thousand.

Personally, I won't consider any Mc preamp with the new module until I see what happens to folks who bought preamps with the older module.

Or just consider it not upgradable like the old built-in DACs?
