Johan,
WRT the Fusion upgrade, basically it consisted of a few circuit changes, but the big difference was the use of premium components.
The Superior upgrade replaces the whole MDAC analogue stage with a simplified FDAC topology. The Mosfet output stage section is the same as FDAC's (running with lower ClassA bias) - however the Superior uses a Opamp based gain stage rather then the FDAC's fully discrete design - but the circuit topology is the same (FDAC / MDAC Superior).
Sonically, the MDAC Superior is in a different league when compared to the Fusioned MDAC, not to even mention and standard MDAC... (based upon our listening tested of a partial "rats nested" Superior modified MDAC - this was without the FDAC's MOSFET ClassA OPS).
Basically: Fusion is discrete; Superior is opamp based?
