RELISTING - Ebay erroneously cancelled my previous listing and has apologized & reinstated my auctions. DO NOT MESSAGE ME ABOUT ENDING AUCTIONS EARLY. *NO RESERVE, EVERYTHING MUST GO*THIS, seriously rare. Custom made for us by API via connections we had. We requested a version of the 550 but with 6 db Max Gain/Cut in 1db increments more suited for stem mixing (12db was overkill for stereo stems in our opinion and for our console needs) So here is one stereo matched pair, we commissioned 3 pairs for the console, winner will receive the option to by the second and third pair upon winning. Some of the only ones in existence as far as we know. Auction is for both matched EQ modules.please do not contact me to end this one early.Smoke free environment, private use, original owner and commissioned by us with API. Closing studio after 20 years, our loss is your gain.
