Congratulations Phil ;)

quite interesting to have one, it can be useful for many purpose.
& an interesting analogic preamp / eq tool.
Not so powerful especially on the low end but well ... an honnest piece of gear.

It's a shame the covers must be all dead now ... The foam is falling down in pieces in just a few years.
I already changed mine 1 time & it has to be done again...
The original one was quite sexy.

What pics do you need ?
Best

Objet: [Simmons Drums] SDC200 amplifier





I managed to get the SDC200 amp that was on ebay UK last week, for the princely sum of £10.50.


Picked it up last night, a huge and heavy beast, and it's in pieces today. Basically a fairly simple ILP 200W amplifier design driving an ILP bass and Celestion midrange speaker.


Only a couple of channels currently work so I'll need to get the rest of them fixed up. In pretty good cosmetic condition but will need to fabricate a new cover for the front.


Don't see many of them around...does anyone have any close-up photos ? Even Google hardly has any, and there's almost no information on the unit itself...
