Cheers Gary.
With less than £100 between the MK6/4 and the 7510+, it ain't much more money for most folks. Some spend that on just one side of a stereo interconnect. Maybe I can goldplate the case or put some brick in it just to increase the price. What about licensing the Goldmund label
?

Stanley! Stanley! Stan dear friend! Can we have a gold star on the back to show it's a 6/4 and not any old 6/3? Please, O please, and pretty please.
More seriously, do you change some components on the main board, or will we see a little piggy back board?

That ought to be worth a £50 premium!
