Latest gear you've acquired.....

[Scodiddly]

Pair of Yamaha PM5000 mixing console channel strips, racked up. I'm not sure if this is recently "acquired" as all the parts have been here for at least a couple years and sometimes longer. Just finally got around to assembling it. I will add that it's very straightforward on one hand, and rather weird on the other. Clearly these modules were designed as just a part of a much larger product, which meant figuring out some tricky little things even to have the LEDs light up.

Can't put that in a rack and miss out on all that wood. Maybe permanent duty on someone's old Hammond.

Got a small guitar amp, custom made, all-metal cabinet, 4" speaker, all tube. I like it.

That’s the way to do it, to be honest. Let’s see it

Is it one of those 'toaster' amps? Those re-purposed magnasync moviola tube boxes?

That's a sweet little amp. Does it have a speaker out to run a bigger cab?

[shedshrine]

The headphone amp out was modded to be line level. I haven't fired it up in a long time. Thanks for the question!

I found one of those in the trash many, many years ago. I never did anything with it and eventually gave it away.

Regrets, I've had a few.......

My business partner has one and you’d think it’d suck but it cuts through a mix like nothing.

I have the solid state version. It's got 4 in with independent volume for each. Not that anyone ever needs that.
When you turn everything up it's the heaviest sounding thing ever. It even has a speaker out and will drive a cab.
