I love funky old amps like that! For $12, it'll at least look cool in the studio even if it doesn't work. Haha. You're starting to sound like a real studio owner, haha.

Got a new Clarett 4Pre just installed a few minutes ago. It's working out great.
I've had all the claretts now except the 2Pre, (or the new USB ones.)
I'm gonna sell the big ones and try to buy some Focal speakers.

Flipped a couple cheap drum kits and got some nice cymbals out of the deal to hold on to...Paiste Reverand Al 24” Ride and some 60’s Zildjian 14” Hi-Hats.
It sounds like I might be diving into a second studio “partnership” so I may be selling some drums and things to try and accumulate some stuff for that. Unexciting things like a HD Native Thunderbolt card, another HD license, and another Avid HD I/O.

Picked up a Goot RX-711AS soldering station (Made in Japan) to replace my ageing Weller and an unreliable Digitech (Jaycar) station. So far it seems good.

So far this year.... this week... FINALLY bought a set of Tannoy System 215 DMT speakers, like giant refrigerators, after all these years!! I have to modify my control room's front wall to even get them in there!
Plus, bought a U67

The one lesson I learned from my the years I had 12's is big Tannoy's don't sing well with Bryston! Funny though big ones and Hafler Transova were blah but the old little PBM's loved em!

Totally open to suggestions! The System-12 dMT's I have loved an old AB amp. EDIT, ADDENDUM: Some recommendations... Krell FPB 600C . . . HOLY SPITBALLS THEY'RE PRICEY!! Bryson 7BST . . . nobody really feels the love for these Threshold SA/12e . . . I've heard these work Levinson 336 . . . again, sell the speakers to afford the amp!

Ludwig stainless steel kit with 26x14 kick, 15x12, 16x14 and 18x16 concert toms. Surprisingly not heavy. I’m not sure what to do with them...I’m tempted to convert the floor tom and 15x12 to regular toms. Bonham freaks are all about the 26” kick and they are pretty rare.

An ADL 1000 found it's way to my doorstep and I just had to take it in.

Boosted by adding a Sonosax SX-AD8+. This is an eight channel mic amp and a/d converter combined. Incredible specs such as 138 dB dynamic range and 90kHz. treble response at 192k sampling rate. Connect to Mac laptop with AVB Ethernet link. Used for small classical jobs. Picked at Sonosax factory in Mont-sur-Lausanne, Switzerland.

Got a set of Zildjian K Series cymbals for the studio drum kit.
Also got a Beringher P16-I Hub and one P16 M mixer to test out the artist personal monitoring system. If we like it, we'll order more mixers.
I would prefer to be buying microphones but the studio logistics are important too :-)

I love Zildjian K more than any cymbal! I just got some Focal Aria 906 speakers (monitors). "Focal - Made in France." "F-Sandwich Technology" I want to ask them about their "F" Sandwich technology...

I scored a Sebatron Axis 200VU on eBay for $1140. A year ago, when I was shopping for a new pre, I narrowed my choice down to the Axis and the Hendy Rembrandt. I wound up going with the Hendy but every now and again I'd take a look to see if anyone was selling the Axis on the cheap. At $1140, I felt the price was right. Now if only the mailman would finally get here.

Sit down for this. IK iLoud Micro Monitors. With 10% off special i really needed something portable and reasonable without breaking the bank and Bluetooth. Am i happy with them?? So far over the Moon. Can even hear the reverb tails of that trip over the Moon.

Golden Age EQ-73 for my Pre-73 mkiii (with Carnhill upgrade). Really good and the price is ridiculously cheap.
Drawmer 1968 mkII, destined to the drum bus initially. Very promising.
Aphex 204 just because Ryan Hewitt uses it. Fun!

I bought a Dangerous Monitor ST to replace my older Presonus Central Station. It gave me a little more clarity to mixes. Very nice.
