Damnation Audio Fan/Appreciation Thread

We can all agree the MBD has a lot of volume on tap. We can all also agree that no one needs that much volume right?

I assume then that changing the max volume from 14Vpp to 6Vpp won't lead to any riots, right....right?
...so then we can all claim to have a "superior" "v1" circuit and charge absurd amounts on the used market, right? Because changing those parts clearly destroys the mojo. Though I have the volume only at about 10:30-11:00, I clearly need insane volume. For science.

Or, you know, change it up. Wouldn't affect my usage besides making the volume knob setting higher for me.

Revising parts, ok.
Personally,
I think the "perfect MBD" (for me) would have the footprint of the 1, and a subset of features from the 1/3.
Shift switch from the 1/2 remains, and clean switch that goes between either OG low-passed/new contoured.

Who turns pedals off? But seriously I can reprogram it.
I already keep the MBD3 on all the time, utilizing the boost quite a bit as well. The DIST2 is another flavor. Also, I don't know if it's worth sending off. It's more of a very slight inconvenience than anything else. Thanks for the quick response, though.

Y'all get a good chunk of very precious real estate on the live board...
