My guess is that the redesigned elements were never adequately proved out in a prototype. There is not only the issue of the manufacturing implementation of the new design elements, but also their integration into an existing production model. I'm sure the changes were rushed in order to provide some sort of difference from the old Taiwan produced model for marketing. Drdna's surmise or info on their using the cash from one sale to fund the production of the next has the ring of truth. Even more disturbing is the assertion of hifigirlgeek that an electrician said the unit failed code. If true, there could be a hazard. It would be useful if hifigirlgeek could elaborate or clarify that point.
