The current DRRI has a solid state tremolo coupler circuit to replace the original opto-coupler which is no longer allowed under RoHS regulations. It's a ridiculously complex piece of extra circuitry which requires an additional power supply in the amp too - but it just doesn't sound as good. It's easy enough to remove the whole mess and re-fit the correct part though - which you can still buy, it's available for repair purposes even under the new regs.

Anyhow, I've been meaning to give a Deluxe Reverb a go. I gave one a try once, and was kind of underwhelmed- it just didn't sound good to me. I suspect it was my playing that was the problem, more than the amp! I do remember it popped- LOUDLY- every time I switched from standby to play. ( was testing pedals that day)
I remember the old CdS LDRs, there always used to be one in those 300 in 1 electronics experiments kits. Anyway, I don't understand why they can't do the same job in silicon, with a photodiode and a handful of other integrated components. Vibe pedals use a similar arrangement for the LFO.
Might save a fortune on alcohol if turning the DRRI on has the same end result !
