You are bidding on an API 2500 Stereo Compressor. This unit is in perfect working condition as well as physical condition. .The auction comes with the unit, power cable, and its original box. Rest assured your item will be carefully and promptly shipped and insured. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send an email!*You may have noticed that we have one negative feedback. I pride myself on providing excellent service, on every auction, every time. And I have maintained a 100% positive feedback for many years. The reason this one happened is because I used eBay's Global Shipping Program to fulfill this order overseas. Normally, eBay will remove any negative feedback that is associated with a shipment they have fulfilled. However, because I had decided to taken a break from selling on the site for a few months and my eBay communications preferences were set so that I was not receiving messages via my regular email (believing that all completed auctions were successfully concluded), I was not made aware that the customer did not receive their item. By the time I noticed what had happened (May 15th, 2016), even though I made it right with the customer (as can be seen follow up feedback), too many months had passed for the customer to be able remove the negative feedback themselves (the option to revise feedback goes away after a couple of months). eBay also said that I brought the issue to their attention after the cutoff date to have them revise it. So although eBay agreed it was their error, the negative feedback stands. Ouch! I'm placing this explanation in each auction to make clear the reason this occurred and to reassure would-be buyers that I am a high-quality seller. Thanks.FeaturesAPI 2520 Op AmpVariable threshold between -20dBu and +10dBuSelectable ratio, attack and release timesPatented THRUST® selectable high-pass filter before RMS detectorVariable link between left and right channelsOld "feed back" or new "feed forward" compressionSoft, medium or hard knee for easy to sharp compressionAuto or manual gain make up1/4" balanced side chain inputsOutput clips at +28dBuThe API 2500 Stereo Bus Compressor allows adjustment of sonic qualities to alter the punch and tone of the stereo mix. One of the 2500's notable qualities is its use of API's patented THRUST circuit for a chest-hitting, punchy bottom end. The 19-inch, rack-mountable unit boasts a dual-channel design that can be configured for stereo compression or for use as two separate units via a single compression setting.Another unique feature of the 2500 is its selectable "old" or "new" compression. The old style uses the "feed back" type of compression found in the API 525, while the new style uses a "feed forward" type in which the compressor side chain is fed directly from the unit input. Additionally, the output stage exhibits an auto-makeup gain button that permits the user to vary the threshold or ratio while automatically maintaining a constant output level. Further, the 2500 ensures fidelity with its all-discrete, fully balanced design with two front panel VU meters showing input, output and gain reduction levels.
