    hi nando...

    i have a vintage tascam broadcast desk and their last proper dj mixer....but this is actually a very serious piece of kit....

    it's owned by a japanese record collector and based on classic vslve circuits.....it's about £6,000 pounds of work in the u.k. after duty....they have 4 sts of atc 100 actives plus masive horn subs.... they are well above the average u.k. audiophoool.
    these boys take music really serious.

    i know for a fact one japanes audiophile who earns the equivalent of £14,000 a year has spent that x2 plus his savings alone on his and a friends whiskey bar in tokyo.... they paid for a top soul dj from the uk £900 not including accommodation and flights just to hear a 3 hour set of records never available in japan..... they are far more into music at a high stabdard than the average u.k. hi fi troll will ever get to.

    Lovely nostalgic designs Robert. I always liked the big amps of the 70's myself with brushed aluminium fascia, machined dials, UV meters and teak cladding!

    I did an amp panel for a sub woofer that I had built and that was a learning curve for sure, it helps I have a background in graphic design, but it was a steep curve learning about etching, screen printing, water cutting etc...

    Would be more than happy to help if you need any, although you look as though you've got most things covered and have a clear idea of your products look and feel.

    I'd put it more politely! but yeah it kinda jumps out at you, the panels are quite busy so I'd reign it in a bit-lose the serify script. Really nice bits of kit though and good luck with them.
