More goodies found while cleaning out the closet! Here we have a vintage Altec 1592A 5 channel mixer and pre amp. Comes with 3 1588B transistors, and 2 15356A transistors. The 15356A's are questionable, but the 1588B's sound great. This was one of the first transistor units made. I don't know...

We're cleaning out the closet and getting rid of some stuff! Here are a bunch of JBL 15" drivers. D15S, 8 ohm coil, 2225 cone. $100. D130F, 8 ohm coil, 2225 cone. $100. D130F, 8 ohm coil, 2225 cone. Distorts at high levels, needs a recone. $30. 2220B, 16 ohm coil, original cone. 3 available...

As the title says, I came across a good deal on a Velodyne CHT 10. It makes noise down to 30 cycles, has a 150 W amp, 10" woofer, both RCA line level and bare wire terminal speaker level in's and out's, 85 Hz pass filter on the outputs to the nearfields, and sweepable volume and low pass filter...

Howdy folks. I'm on the hunt for an "affordable" sub to compliment my Tannoy tops. Something along the lines of $400, new or used, and flat down to 30 cycles. I hear not so great things about the M Audio BX10S, and any of the other usual "brands" are either too rich for me or don't go down far...

After being out of recording for a few years, I now find myself knee deep in the biggest, and most expensive, project I've ever done. Now armed with the UAD-1, my new (old) Tannoys, and the latest Sonar, I need some standards to check my mixes on. I figure a set of stock IPod buds are a...

So after too many years on my Event PS8's, I now have the budget and need for a step up pair of monitors. I learned on a set of Tannoy System 1200's many years ago, and I am a believer in coaxial technology, so naturally, I've been keeping an eye out for something along these lines. I ended up...

Selling my old Gadget Labs Waves 824 soundcard. 8 in, 8 out. 24 bit, 48 kHz. For those that don't know, Gadget Labs was based out of Portland, OR, and went belly up years ago. In fact, they never even released drivers for XP. However, there is a user supported community, and they have...

Howdy folks. I recently picked up a Delta 1010 (not the LT version). It's been working out great, except for one little thing. It seems like the +4/-10 switches are causing the signal to cut in and out, but usually only with low level coming in. This is really only a problem on dynamic sources...

Alesis NanoVerb. Half rack space unit, very basic effects unit. $100 new, I'll do $50. Yamaha QX-1. Old school MIDI sequencer. $50. Gibralter Prowler kick drum pedal. $30. Tama HP200 kick drum pedal. $60 new, I'll do $30. Paiste Signature series Full Ride. 20". $335 new, I'll do $170...

Got a few things sitting around collecting dust, so I figure I might as well get rid of them! Boss TU-12H Tuner Lists for $110, Sells for $70. I'll do $40 shipped. Sabine ST-1100 Tuner. Velcro on the bottom. Lists for $70, sells for $50. I'll do $30 shipped. 15 foot D-Sub snake. TRS ends. No...

Monster cables have bought the naming rights to San Fransisco's Candlestick Park, where the 49er's play. This is a bold move from a company this small. http://www.monstercables.com/ for details.

I will soon be buying my first LDC (FINALLY!). Of course I plan on going up to the local recording store and going through the lot, following Mr. Gersts testing techniques. I don't think I can afford more than $200 or so total, thus limiting my options. But I was just wondering what most of you...

I recently reformatted (2K). I installed my CEP 2.0, and used it a few times. Now all of sudden, whenever I start it, it says "coolpro2.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created." My first course of action was to...

I've been looking at building a phantom power supply. Is it as simple as taking a wall wart, chopping the end off, and connecting the + and - leads to the + and - leads of the cable going to the mic?

Well, I'm finally in the financial position to buy some of the stuff I've been wanting. I'm looking to buy any of the following monitors for $300/pair- M Audio BX 8, Yamaha MSP 5, Event 20/20P, Event TR 8, or JBL LSR25P. Or the passive Event 20/20 for $150. In which case I'd also be looking...
