Patchbay question...what am I missing?

Daedalus77 · 26th July 2007

I'm in the market for a TT patch-bay with rear DSUB connectors. There's something of a glut of them on the market suddently, actually.

I'm looking at two models and trying to figure out why one is twice the cost as the other, as they seem to me identical.

Anyone know why this Audio Accessories model...

...cost significantly more than Redco's own unit...

What am I missing?

Many thanks, as always.

only thing i can think of is it's redco's own so less overhead to pay.

the audio accessories unit is 1.5 ru the normalling switches are on the back

the redco is 1 ru the normalling switches are on the top

don't know if that justifies the price but they are not 'exactly' the same
