Yes, I'm ssi on IRC, and the conversion was quite straightforward. I have $400 in Mesa gear, under $200 for two vfds, and miscellaneous wiring supplies. The stock resolvers work great with mesa's 7i49, there's no problems with the Hiak amps. The only issue I ran into was dirty tachs, and they cleaned up easy enough.
Conversion took about 2 weeks of evenings.
