www.audiomaintenance.com/acatalog/aml-17-048_extended_info.htmlY'all seen this? Pretty interested, and the price is right. Around $470 for the kit, and $670 assembled. I don't know how many of you like to use the limiter section on a 2254/33609, but if you're not using it, this gets you the comp section in two 500 spaces versus three on the 54F50, and adds a HPF along with additional recovery speeds. Seems pretty cool.

Amazing. I love my 54F50. Only occasionally use the limiter. Definitely will be building these

I’ll be getting a pair of these eventually. I previously owned a pair of 54f50 but wanted faster release times so these are perfect!

I've used these for a few years now. Love it. Hardly ever use the limiter, though

Holy shit I destroyed a record with a real 2254 back in the mid 90's. F#ck.

Looks cool. I noticed the ez2254 is no longer listed either. Maybe he will release a newer version with the expanded attack/release times? Or maybe it's just the 500 series now.

I just have finished building and testing a pair of 52F50's and soundwise they are almost identical to the 54F50 (except the limiter of course). Couldn't help to mod mine to look a bit more EMI.

Looks great with the Neve-style knobs. Funny, I had AML build me a stereo pair into an API 500 rack a few years ago and they told me it would not work with Neve-style knobs. Not enough space. Guess they lied.  |

I think those are EMI style not Neve/Marconi style knobs. But regardless, they look great!!!

Guess they lied. The 52F50 was only launched a few weeks ago. You are confusing your 54F50's with these 52F50's. You cannot use Marconi style knobs on the 54F50's because it would cover up the text around each control. The 52F50 comes with grey Marconi style knobs as standard (msamper has replaced them here with Stockli (EMI style) knobs). Colin www.audiomaintenance.com |

Does this mean the ez2254 is gone? At the moment there is no time to do them. We are limited by the amount of staff as there is not enough space to social distance. 500 series products will take precedence. Colin |

Colin Bummer but understandable. Thanks! If you really want the 2254, hit me up! I've got an AML built one that rarely sees use. I could be convinced to open up some rack space......  |
