When they came out (mid-70s) they were ∗way∗ overpriced. They tried to make too
much $$$ of the rack+power supply (errr...Doepfer?) which cost them dearly. The
modules were designed by Dr. Richard Cabot, who left and founded Audio
Precision. I think that for eBay prices, they are a good value. Yes, any
1970s-80s DVM will need a calibration (about $80).
The mini-scope module is cool, as is the function generator.
I lusted after this stuff in college :)
