It's not a matter of optimism Brother, it's a matter of money. I barely could afford to buy the blown up one off AK and help Jer with some of the parts, thank goodness I had the M1.5T to trade in towards it. As for Blackie, I would not have her either without Jer

Yep, a 1000B is unobtanium for me. Even if I found a nice clean cosmetically but blown up one for dirt cheap, I could not afford to have it done up proper. I am just happy to be able to own a few 400s and belong to this great community

And what if someone asked you to go gather up a bunch of stuff and ask you to keep it up to 6 months?? And ship some of the goodies during that time?? Gather up one for your trouble and send it to Jer?? Was that so bad??

Oh, I have some good news. Some AK dude that lives in my State contacting me that he several Phase Linear cabinets for the 400 and 700B amps. He told me he sold some near NOS condition (2) 400s and (3) 700Bs that came from the estate of some bigwig. That made me sick when I heard that (lost opportunity) but then he mentioned the cabs. I am assuming he has 5 of them and I need two for the 400s but I will try to get them all in case anybody here needs them

I would do that anyway for you anyways, no compensation required except costs to pickup and ship. That would be awesome though! On a side note, I figured that was a dead deal, have not heard a peep since you were discussing it and have not seen that cat on the board lately. This AK dude I am talking to says he has a warehouse full of audio stuff. I am just feeling him out for the PL cases but I think he has a bunch of Pioneer silverface and SPEC stuff also. I am also running a Craigslist ad now looking for blownup/broken PL stuff but have not heard anything yet

No deal yet, waiting on a detailed inventory. I've learned that if a 3rd party is involved(Ron) , that it's better for everyone if things can be checked off a list as they're loaded, no misunderstandings that way.


And Ron, I would not expect your time for nothing, after covering your expenses you need something.

Agreed, you definitely want what you pay for. I would be on the phone with you anyway while it was being done, even live feed video via my Son's tablet

Talked to him last February on the PL's he told you he sold. No doubt he has what he says.

What was he asking for them when he was selling? He wants $10 a piece for the PL cases. I would have to drive to Bethany to pick them up (otherside of the State). I m trying to guage his prices for stuff. I asked him if he had any D9's or something 15" 400w speakers that are cheap enough for me to be able to buy. Just checked my PM's over there and he has not got back to me yet about the cases

Never quoted a price, I just told him I wasn't going to give what he thought they were worth.

The chances of me being in phone range are 50/50 at best, therefore.....

I got busy last night and totally missed this thread. This is so generous and awesome of you. I can't wait to give it a listen. Then hopefully after that I'll have my own rebuild thread on here:smokin:
