Do you mean the bolt-together SNAPS which are the same shape as a Nac12? In which case, yes, they're like hens' teeth....

Purely my opinion, but I'd not bother with the dual railing. Nice bolt-together 32s are not common these days, so I'd enjoy it as the designers intended it, and if you really want to scratch that dual rail itch, sell it on and get a 32-5 or similar. Cheers Adrian

Thanks for the advice. Will order the bits from CTC......

Hi Folks, With the LP12/Nima laid up for repairs, I retrieved the 401/UP4 from the loft the other day. Spent a happy hour or so re-installing a Dynavector 10x5 and setting it up. Gave it a quick spin and all sounding good. An hour or two later, noticed some orange gunge had appeared under...

Interesting..... an email will be sent! :)

Hi Folks, I have a couple of Quad IIs. They were bought as a non-working pair without valves. What I'd like to do is get them serviced and have new valves fitted. My intention is to use them with a 22 preamp, and I'd like them kept as original as possible. What are my options? Do IAG/Quad...

They do food too? Excellent! :-)

When did the unobtainium start? Were the 9500 series affected or was it when the 9800s arrived with all the fluorscan meters and other bling? The reason I ask is that I have an SA9500 and TX9500 patiently awaiting overhual and some general TLC. Any recommendations for a competent servicer in...

Might the name not relate to the metal used to make the arm?

To quote Wikipedia.... "The credit for the first usage of personal names for weather systems is given to the Queensland Government Meteorologist Clement Wragge, who named tropical cyclones and anticyclones between 1887 and 1907."
