Rockwell Collins Control 8 Broadcast Analog Mixer..Very Rare Vintage!

Description: For your consideration: For sale is an extremely rare find vintage piece. Pulled from a working environment moons ago and stored for an indefinite amount of time until recently when the mixer was given endless hours of complete refurbishing session. Including but not limited to, detailed clean every crevice every line, hand buffed, replenished all pertinent components including knobs, dials and switches. Nothing spared and all was meticulously done. Comes with the propriety power supply. On bench test the mixer powers on. Too much projects on hand and I may not be able to execute further testing. However, the unit is guaranteed not D.O.A. Therefore, I am selling in AS IS condition and be prepared to explore and tackle the challenge of configuring the proper implementation to normal operational order. Intuitive wiring diagrams for I/O configurations are printed on the panel of the mixer to serve as user guide manual. Actual wirings patches are still intact (but are cut raw at all ends) and included with the unit. One VU meter mini bulb (28 volt I believe) is out but so easy access to replace. Like any vintage electronics traces of minor cosmetic imperfections due to age are almost always expected, but in no way deflect your appreciation for its imposing classic beauty resulted from subsequent meticulous work invested. You'll be hard pressed to find another of this exceptional state no doubt. This is as pure analog as it can get! Ideal for incurable collector of all things Analog and everything unique, one of kind and rare. And for those who seek for an absolutely unmatched, esoteric texture of warm analog sound that no ubiquitous ones and zeros could bring. So don't deny this rare 60's Classic! Simply the ultimate conversational display piece in your audio gallery with a few colleagues & contemporaries over a beer exchanging anecdotes and comparing "biases", "total harmonic distortions", "signal to noise ratio" or perhaps just reminiscing about the day when "Analog ruled the World"...hey maybe the epoch of analog discovery is in full circle, yet again..well just a wishful thought....but Who's to say?! The unit is heavy. Shipping and handling may vary on location. Post Script:Ideal for serious incurable collector or purveyor of all things analog, unique and in short supply with intent to build a showroom, I would consider to sell to the eligible buyer, a once in a life time find some of the rarest extremely sought after cornucopia of Vintage, Hi-Fi, DJ, A/V and Pro gears in a single Collection anywhere. Exceeding decades of tracking-down and literally thousands of man-hours invested in refurbishing, restoring, repairing these amazing electronic wonders to accumulate such magnificent concentration of historical analog importance you've ever seen! Some are new, used and few are part of my on going passion in what I do. Nonetheless, all has given equal meticulous attention and care to arrive in the integrity they once were and will be hard pressed not to admire aesthetically.
