I know that some people say that older TC 1210's sound better than more recent ones due to parts changes. Probably an old wive's tale.
I cant speak for myself(I was hoping to be a new owner of one soon until I saw it was discontinued) but I've heard a few others say they sounded slighltly different because of some component changes over the years.
I know that certain components where changed on the M5000(The host processor being one) which is why they have 2 separate software upgrades. One for older M5000s and one for the newer units.
Here is a quote from the M5000 web page:
"
Why two different M5000 software's?
The host processor we were using in the M5000 was becoming unavailable.
The new host requires a different but functionally identical software, hence two different versions. "
I'll shoot TC an email and see if they can join in on this topic. It would be cool to have a rep here and maybe they can share some of the ideas and new gear that we might see from them in the future.
