ASS,Gauss,Martin,etc old brochures.

I wonder what happened to him, he seemed to vanish without a trace. He was quite a prominent advertiser in the early days in Beat Instrumental.

I remember helping somebody unstack a PA system that used the 212HPA mids, and being surprised by the weight of them. Although they looked like the then-common 2x12 angled mids, the bit in the middle was a Vitavox 4kHz diffraction slot horn with an S3 driver on the back. It fitted neatly in between the two ATC Standard 12's. This would have been in the mid 1970's.

We had a pair of his 212HWM wedges, they were well made and worked fine.

Can anyone post/link to, an image of the ASS SP9? Or did I just miss it in the collections already posted?

Another one from Westmill

You want it when?

This is from Gulton Europe who built the EV range in Nidau Swiss. for the Europe market so they don't have to ship from USA.

Look at the 4x15 cab at the back. That cab killed 108db at 1 watt. He He not bad for the 70's 800watt rated. I all ways wanted to build a pair of them. I have the drawings from Shuttle Sound some where.

Just in the process of re-furbing a pair of Martin Audio VRS800 cabinets identical to the ones on the first page of this post that Ian has shown from the Martin Audio catalogue of the day.

All components are totally original and all with their original Martin Audio stickers except for the JBL 2426 HF drivers with JBL ID on----Even the passive crossovers are totally original and with all the XLRs in place as they have not been butchered by fitting Speakons but we are going to fit a metal 8 pole Speakon in the space left on the input panel---Properly, I might add so that it looks as if it was there when the cabinets left the factory----The only thing missing is the Martin Audio badges from the original front grilles---If anyone has any spare at all, I would be most grateful if they can let me know---Its the older aluminium plate screen printed badge with the large "M" on it not the newer smaller plastic one---Cheers--John.

Like these?

I'll see if i can tease the ones off the front of mine. My grills have seen better days and i'm not too fussed what they look like. If i can get them off, I'll post them down to you.

My cabs have the NL8 on them as well. It's a good mod to have.

Why did the lampy cross the road?

To steal MY sharpie.
