Hi ya Chris
Did anything show up in Rob's service?
The 312 pair are a little bit too much for me at the moment. I was contemplating selling my pair of API 550b's but was going off the idea.
Now you have me thinkin.

One channel had gone down. Rob found a fault in the phantom power and fixed it. He went over the entire unit and cleaned a few things up. He also converted the external psu from US 110V to Aussie.
I would go down to $1500 (not inc fees).

Ha! I was thinking of letting one of my 550B's go for a 560...for a while now. I'm not the only one then!

(not that there is anything wrong with 500B's. Just that I'd like another flavour of EQ, instead of a stereo pair)

EDIT: my bad for the thread hijack! As you were gentlemen...

By the way, in case there is any confusion.
This is a hardwired rack unit with the components of vintage 312's installed in a fully integrated fashion, NOT two lunchbox modules in a rack.
I can email pics to anyone interested.
