I think the idea is to remove the sub receiver, sell it, and use the proceeds to offset the cost of another option.

You see lots of second receivers on the bay because lots of people have the same idea. Everyone selling reduces the people buying because the are all coming out of the same pool of users. I mean who is going to want an Elecraft sub receiver if they don't have Elecraft equipment?

So the 'savings' premis, although logical at first blush, is actually seriously flawed. First off, even if you do find a buyer, the selling price is going to be far less than you payed for it because it is used and unwanted. Then, if you later decide to add the sub receiver back, you end up possibly paying full price if you have to go back to the manufacturer. That is not a savings.

Why remove it?
The sub receiver is very nice

The most cost effective thing to do is to remove the sub-receive and save $200 bucks and upgrade the main synth only. I can see a lot of second receivers on eBay.
