I am no amateur and take my electronic profession very seriously, there is very little I can not repair in the DJ world / pro AV industry, MatAmp used my services as the south England repair for MatAmp equipment back in the 80s & 90s When I picked up this mixer from the Epping Forest Country Club it was ready for the skip, and I mean ready, It was totally trashed after 16 years of abuse, It had fault after fault, there was only a few channels working, just.. The output module was totally in trouble, You can see If I do a Job I do it correctly, No toy town repairs with me, I replaced, new Knobs, Faders, Facia plates, you name it, it got renewed Edited by johnnysh - 31 October 2012 at 4:27pm |

It was not cheap, but because it was modular it varied in price

I was club side, Terry is a close friend, along with big lee,
I still DJ today with terry and lee, that TOA system was crazy, the chiminey breast in the country club was filled to the top with low power TOA amps about 300watts per channel, no fans! But there was so many of them each driving a pair of cabs, the end result was a very loud pumping sounds system that sounded amazing, due to having so many amps driving so many cabs. It was also the first time I had seen a professional speaker management system in a club also made by TOA It was a crazy sound system, from a company you would not associate will nutty sound systems Edited by johnnysh - 31 October 2012 at 4:10pm |

This is the DJ booth at Epping Forest country club in 1981 after a refit,with a
Matamp Supernova! This replaced the earlier Allen and Heath production
mixer which had been in use since the mid 1970's.
The 1981 refit also included three HH V-series mosfet amps,V200,V500 and V800 which replaced four prehistoric 100 watt Partridge amps! DJ Simon Harris on the Supernova. |

Be seeing you.
