Swindon is only about a half hour down the M4 from me and I do the trip quite often. I could hold onto it til your ready.

As much as I'd love it no can do this side of Christmas. With 10 children between us and 6 grandchildren you can only imagine how tight cash is but the offer is muchly appreciated.

Wow Col, 10 - Balancing that lot's quite an achievement - I struggle with 4 and the concept of grandchildren hasn't featured so far!

Regards to you and the good lady - Each time i trip over it i still smile at rembering how pleased she was when I swept up that random empty cabinet you had kicking about your house, tho believe me it's still an empty cab!

LOL I have a built in attenuator that cancels out the noise when the kids are here so I'm in my own little world so it's not that bad really.
Christmas time is a bit of a challenge though.  

That cabs been replaced with a pair of Martin AS118's I've been trying to sell as they take up most of the hallway, I like to keep her on her toes LOL

Hi newbie here just spent 2hrs reading and looking at all the Citronic stuff brilliant! I'm actually looking for a cct diagram for the grey sm 650 it's been used daily in my house every day since I bought it from Piccadilly Squires Mercury way Manchester! Fab bit of kit its been used to record stuff for Key103 Manchester and live on Viking FM Hull.The only problem is the phono sockets on the back have come away from the PCB(stopped my mic send/return working) Ah well.
I've also got a Citronic Trent 1 with the pioneer direct drive turn tables bought from new fantastic bit of kit too.Top components used in the build of Citronic kit. Thanks for some top memories,and its fantastic these things are still being used and loved nice one :-)

Hi and welcome to the forum

the phono sockets can easily be re soldered to the PCB or if they are broken can be replaced
I did see some on ebay a while back   They are PCB mount type
I think this is the one

I haven't seen a circuit diagram for the SM650 but I expect someone has one

Yeah. just (almost) finished rebuilding it yesterday, which gave me the compulsion to show it off.
Complete strip & repaint, after I was lucky enough to get an unused pair of turntables. I can hardly stand after all the angles I twisted into to fit parts!
Still wants a micro adjusting on one of the tone arms, and it seems I broke the headphone fader, so that means pulling the mixer apart.
