Been following this guy for a few years. He's always got really cool stuff for sale. But with the prices are stratospheric. I think the target customer is only hipster crypto-millionaires.

It is a bazillion $ worth of vintage parts, assembled for you. But is it useful?

I think when things are priced that way on sights like Reverb and eBay they are meant as advertisements. Serious parties contact the seller and talk off site about real world price.

Scour eBay time This is only for the dentists but you could become a dentist for under 175k. Just bye bye hearing due to the drills. Wall Street bro with egotistical self project gear |

Yeah that original mid ‘60’s 24(?) channel UA tube console went for something under $400k, fully restored and interfaced.

For 6 trillion streams I’m going to want one hell of a lot more routing and other information. I also don’t really understand the attraction of 16 input frame, at mix I’m going to be using a couple of inputs for FX returns so my track count takes a hit. It’s like the 24 input Venue II on the local Craigslist for $750, love the console but I need at least 4 more slots for FX returns. |

I’m still sitting on this Altec 9200A console here, I get tire kickers pretty frequently. It’s cool as hell but I also have a really hard time seeing it ever having enough flexibility to do real work. The fantasy is always some retro “get back to basics / limited possibilities” scenario, and I don’t see that flying for 99% of real working studios. The tire kickers mostly want to use it as a front end, and not a mixer; hell of a lot of real estate for a front end….
