Ward Beck rack (and others)

[Barney Loveland]

Here's the Ward Beck input modules - transformer in, class A preamp and a cross coupled output stage with an Aux pot used for output fader, hi pass filters. They are second from top on the right. And a few other things that are in the workshop at the moment.

oooooooooooooooooooooooh that's a fine looking benchtop.

Mmmm, nice gear Barney - what model Auditronics channel strips bottom right??
I have a pair of 110A pres from Rob - they are very nice...

[Barney Loveland]

Well I have to own up, it's not all mine, actually the only thing that is going to end up in my studio is the little Neve 1272 di/mic pre it will become. The Auditronics are 501 I think, yes after a little work they've scrubbed up well, all four had been repaired differently and badly and had different routing! But a recap, 301 chips replaced with 5534's and a little tweaking. They are transformer in and out with inductor eq, nice.

[TimS]

Yeah, Rob did a nice job on the 110s I got from him.. same sort of setup - inductor-based EQ, Jensen transformers in & out.
Sweet units for their price..

whoa, what happened to those AWA modules? They look a mess.

I have schematics for them. I also have loads of spare parts, but am reluctant to let anything go as it's all pretty rare. But let me know if you need anything specific.

The AWA modules will be a bit of a labour of love, the are in pretty bad shape but one at a time does it i guess. Thanks for the kind offer.
