New claymore/old claymore

Just wondering-what are the design differences between The 2 claymores. I lived with the iss claymore for about 25 years, Col serviced it and it’s now with my dad. I have the ewa version, which certainly sounds like progression. I’ve had never had a look under the hood though. How close to the original is ewa version?

    Did you have a chance to compare them side by side?

    Under hood, new PCB bigger transformer, not FET same basic design as the Q20 with more power and pre out. New up to date components, a super version of the Phono stage. But the same family of sound.
