I've already spoken to the guys from BlackLionAudio... they can do the same PR8E mod to the EP84, which is cool. The modification isn't what you'd call cheap but AU$900+US$350+say AU$100 postage for 8 genuinely good mic pres and lightpipe AD isn't exactly unreasonable either.... I can't think of many good 8ch mic pres with ADAT out for under AU$2K.
Customs would be interesting. Technically you're not importing the item, merely bringing it into the USA for 'repair' then mailing back to Australia where it was originally purchased in the first place. Australia is pretty generous with customs, I think the free limit is AU$1000 value before they want a slice of the pie.
