Hello

I have a classic ADR 760X-RS Compex (with transformer) that is in need of some attention. It needs some new pots for sure (3 or 4 have been snapped off), but possibly other repairs (caps etc) and a general look over/service.

I also have an 1178 that has one dodgy VU meter and could do with a service.

I have not used either unit since I got them, but believe the Urie to be very good condition as it came from a studio I used to work at. The ADR also came from a broadcast studio, so hopefully will be not too bad either.

Thing is, I don't have any money to pay for expensive repair labour costs, but I am willing to pay for required parts. If anyone with the relevant knowledge and skills would like to repair/service these units in exchange for the use of them for 3 months (and possible loans in the future) it would be great to up to scratch.

I assume to hire these units for 3 months would not be cheap, so it seems like a fair deal to me? Like I say, I'm sure neither will require lots of work, but I'd like an expert to get them to shine!

If you are interested, please email me at kanedwilliams@hotmail.com

I would need to know what experience you have obviously. I can deliver to most places in England.

Seems to be a really good idea! Hope you find someone... Cheers!

Where abouts in the UK are you? I've had a bit of experience with Urei (servicing the 1176s that the studio I work at has) so might be able to help you out there.

PM me perhaps? I'll probably forget to check this forum....
 
Just bumping this. I'm going to be in London for the next 3 months, so may be someone can help?
