seems some like and some don't
what I'd like to know is the opinion on which one people feel is the better mod
the LAR/MAR
or the the metro MV kit

If I'm not mistaken the Metro Kit is the Lar/Mar (Trainwreck pages) Master Volume.

Well the Rich Mod was a popular MV mod that has been around a long while and works very well. Larry and Mark contributed to a thread where the PPIMV was refined using their own expertise as well as the Rich mod as a starting point. The Ken Fisher "Trainwreck" pages in the Gerald Weber book also covers the Lar/Mar PPIMV. Anyhow, both will work great. I would opt for the LarMar, but that is because I followed the thread as it was being written and I also did my own homework reading up in the Weber Book and my O'Conner "Ultimate Tone" book. I also have used the Lar/Mar on three of my Marshall builds and really like it.

Looks like it is up to about 85 pages now.

I prefer the larmar/metro since it gives you the stock plexi sound as well as a pretty good master (esp. on the later lead amps). the rich/metro messes with the stock sound
