Not mine, so please someone buy it as my floor could not take the weight.  Looks in great condition with flightcase, had light duties all its life.

Looks as good as new Gavin...certainly up to my standard!
 
Why oh why cant the chinese build to this standard? this thing is 30+ years old,and looks amazing,and still works,yet it was only a cheap budget amp when new...chinese manufacturers take note!!!...dont build rubbish,build quality.

Be seeing you.

Exactly, this was the budget range - go figure!
From days when one or two mens passion for audio could make a difference.

...although it doesnae sound like it, massive caps and powersupplies(x2) mean clean, punchy sound - suit 2x10" etc.  Sounds more powerful than alot of bigger amps.

I ran my first "proper" disco rig using a pair of these in 1979,both amps running into 4 ohms,was much louder than the 4x 240w would suggest.
 
The two amps in the middle,underneath a Pulsar modulator.

Be seeing you.

MM Electronics in the seventies was what Behringer is to todays Pro Audio scene---Good value and performance per £.

Around ’79 I used to run 4 x 4560’s loaded with JBL K140’s,  4 x 2x12 Celestion loaded mids and a pair of RCF TW101 horns on metal flares with 6 piezo’s above each.

All driven from 3 MM AP360’s and an MM 3 way crossover and graphic (mostly brought from Robbo’s Wolverhampton shop)

Quite a loud system at the time, I would love to hear it again and see how it compares with current systems.

I've got a pulsar modulator on a shelf just like that one only ever used it to make a music responsive traffic light...

Always a compromise, You can't have everything...

Where would you put it all.

Perhaps we could remember at this time, Dave Collins who is no longer with us, who was the instigator of MM. P.A.C.E. Redmere, C Audio, Monitec and Austin Armstrong. He did a lot of stuff.

got three, still use them and still love them - although not on the road any more, they power home systems. one is driving my quad esl57s actually, i'm sure that's some kind of sacrilege on the quad's part.
