Anyone got one of those be!@#$%^& thingies they want to offload?

It needs to be balanced TRS (PX-3000 etc)

I really don't care for people who bump threads, but for this, I'll make an exception.

Help.

I wish, they are $119 at Allans.

Ironically, I can get one from the states for $50 + $40 postage.. lol.

Mike,

I just went thru the same exercise as you hunting for a basic balanced TRS patchbay here in Oz and ended up ordering a Samson S-Patch Plus from Frontend Audio via US eBay (occupies the mid-ground pricewise between the Behringers and the Neutriks). Cheapest I could find them in OZ was around $190 plus postage, from the States its about $150 delivered to my door)..... What's nice about the Samson is that it has the normalled/half/thru switches right on the front panel itself (unlike the be!@#$%^&'s which are on top I believe), bit easier to access if you're racking the unit...

Those Beh!@#$ are notoriously unreliable - I'll be replacing mine when I can source a decent alternative (I've heard good things about the Neutrik). Make sure you have a can of deoxit at the ready...

I got a few of them. never had a problem with them.
maybe I'm lucky.

But I don't really see how standard be!@#$%^& practices can muck up something too seriously that doesn't have electronics inside.
