Very much so... NOT! Don't remember, but I think he called it Simmons in the
description since it says Simmons on the unit itself. But as I recall it, a
lousy picture (if any) and two lines of "info". The PSU was shaken out of
place and had bounced around inside, but managed to fix it even with the
old PSU and there was no other harm done - magically...
> Was it before Ebay broke through the magic barrier of 1000 members?
Oh no, as mention, two years ago approx... I had already bought a lot of
stuff there and was probably over 100 feedback points myself. But these days
the gear tend to go more expensive I guess...

Cannot remember his name, but I think he told me he picked it up at a local
2nd hand dealer and thought it was nothing special. I have had help from
this list and google to find out two things;
∗ Dave Simmons bought one (1!) unit called the SDS-2
∗ Stephen Morris of Joy Division/New Order used to own one but hated it. ;)
There are some indications that he sold or dumped it while on a german tour.
That's about it... ∗piouuuuuw∗, ∗fwonk∗
