The room was constructed around the desk!

It meant:

Breaking down half the building
Hoisting down a 500kg desk through a hole and the 2.5 meters down
Renting a big truck, it was 375x125x90cm
Storing it for unknown time
Restoring it for unknown $ (it needed TLC)
Finding sombeody interested in this unit, market is for small project studios
Having to deal with dealers of big desks who seem to have adopted 2nd hand car sales tactics..your desk is worth nothing when selling until it pops up for big $ in their showroom.

So i choose to take modules out, salvaging transformers etc

Offer them via the internet to be shipped via mail to you.. :-)

Check Gearsluts classifieds for the parts...........

I salvaged around 200 Sowter transformers from this unit alone!!

And 64 HQ P&G faders
4 P&G Joysticks
Studer time counter
2 RTW VU meters
32 vintage mci/line inputs
6 patch bays
24 Audio engineering BBC VU meters
Loads of other modules

So i took all options in concideration and i came to this conclusion..

Sad but true...Maybe this way it finds its way to many lovers all over...
