Yeah, defo install m900. Seems to have other stuff so could well be worth a trip to have a rake.

Badged as Metro. Hmm. Agree look more Harrison. Looks like Harrison type LED VU meters above gain pots. In which case what is the 3rd knob??

A proper rack too. BSS OPal, C-Audio SR and a GB series amp.

So I'm going for Harrison X series Ian :)

Jbl man I think you're on the right track.
As I remember it Metro Audio was one of C-Audios brands, they obviously built amps, but were also manufacturing talkback systems and even distributing smoke fluid!
Going by the four mounting bolts on the front panel, I'd say they were the same model (CA4?) that was used for the original Avitec Beta 800 and Rauch Powerblock 44,
Big laminated transformer with 4 pairs of To3 Hitachi FETs per channel, must be nearly thirty years old, after a cleanout and a recap they'd probably be good for another thirty.







Posted By: jbl_man
Date Posted: 10 December 2013 at 6:37pm
Yup,i thought the graphics and layout of the front panel resembled the early Avitec Beta's. Probually good solid amps if that is the case. (C-Audio built?)

But clearly not a V800 or HH at all.

I have lots of Rauch even PB44's none to my knowledge used lam trannies or TO3 devices but toroids  and J83 K228 Flatpak only DVT 300S used TO3  I even have working yes WORKING!!! ( But SMP'd) DVT500S and they were flatpaks too 16/ch 1400W4R PER CH  just another design Phil Rimmer messed up

Hmm, I crewed on a tour in the mid eighties with an Entec supplied Martin RS1200 system that was powered by racks of powerblock 44's.

A couple of weeks later I was shown the new range of amplifiers that Avitec were having manufactured for them, I couldn't help to notice the (identical) back panels and similar front panels.

I've seen the inside of plenty of the Avitec amps, but never saw the inside of the Rauch amps and assumed that they had the same internals.

SMP have you got any pictures of the PB44 internals, to compare the similarities / differences, maybe your amps are newer models than the ones I remember lugging around all those years ago.


Posted By: SMP
Date Posted: 10 December 2013 at 8:25pm
I can post some but they are out doing what they should at present (earning rental) but one is a floater/spare that will return lwhen it is swapped out for the amp it replaced temporarily
So will take some incidentally they use a "Heat Exchanger called a "Pinfin" the only thing Phil Rimmer/Pantechnic did get right still basically the "Hitachi" Topology just uses a "Flatpak" called "HPAK" Hitachi 2SJ50 2SK135 Die in a different package. Apparently quite a rare find and sell for over £40 each as a spare I have a 100 or so here nice new ones since 85 as well a a few boxes of TO3 Hitachi

As I remember it, when HH got into trouble Rauch was set up by someone called Jerry?

I believe he'd been involved in sales at HH, as I remember there being quite a slick marketing campaign.

It looks like a few different firms had a hand in the design and manufacture of their products, as in addition to C- Audio and Pantechnic I'm pretty certain Ben Duncan also had a hand in some of the designs.

Absolutely right, at one time in addition to selling modules Phil Rimmer would also sell you the Pin Fin heatsink. It was a fairly substantial aluminium casting and presumably the same one that was used in Rauch DVT’s.

yes BD got involved in development of the SRS SMPS though does not actually switch and yes again a fair few people involved at various points. It eventually became MST Rauch I sold them used them fixed them. no idea where Charlie Sapelsa went he was last owner of it P600 were great very light 2U package SMPS is nothing new
classTD by Labgruppen just a further development of the tech as are so many others


Posted By: Muckerbarnes1

Ooo. Hedge hog heatsinks. I also made a pattern ( yes, me) to cast heatsinks to keep our FET amps cool. ( lower RDs-on ect ) These made a noticeable difference to our 1450W/ch FET amps of the day, circa 1992. More grunt than anything we had tested. Dual die TO3's from Semi-lab.

Never seen inside a Rauch, but meester SMP you'll be happy with yer Matrix amps. They just work.

As posted before, Dave Collins (Austin Armstrong) tried to get me to go and play in Cambridge for a while to race tune his amps. I never went. Too busy. Dave was a great guy. Great days.

I will post some internals from my "Museum" of older amps sadly some are not readily available too far away in storage but a photo of my shed which used to be full with piles of Quad II's would have raised a few smiles instead they raised a fair few quid instead a few years back. Austin Amrstrong had a few of those racked up for Mons when the Turner racks were a bit lacking grunt for the job ok but never been a fan of "Highside" myself bloody zeners used to pop on them a lot. still have one somewhere a 4chx600W  with "Popped" Zeners of course. I do need to put on a "Thermal dynamics Hat" soonish to design an exchanger for some amps I intend to produce. I know zip about castings though but just a learning curve

Yes the Matrix arrived no chance to listen to right now maybe next few days will hook them up. do a comparison to Adyton XP3 & Rauch DVT300S & Turner grab a Labgruppen of a mate for reference Have to find a "Doo Doo" one for comparing it to junk got a C-Audio will do somewhere

Thanks for letting me know I have been outbid now anyway
Even so I think 7 of these amps would have been  worth £120    If I had of won  a case would have to of been opened with Ebay for false description as they clearly are nothing like a V800 or in fact any H/H amp at all

Jerry Mead and Ben Duncan did work together on amps. I think they used Hitachi mosfet. Ben was a big fan of mosfet at the time.

After Rauch - Jerry was planing to use the name Otis for his new amplifiers. Don’t think they made any.

last contact with who I believe was Dave was for schematics as could not find mine.
Matrix Amps collected from Delivery address today ( I can never g'tee to be here to receive shipping)
Only given them a visual so far have a few niggles already and not even hooked them up.
1/ no signal links that is something I expect on pro kit.
2/ outputs only on NL4 I like 4mm posts easy phase change when not present as switched option
without need to re-wire a connector
Other is not really usual but would ask for it if I start to spec them "Pot-locks" great for tamper proofing/ preset input sensitivity

Will hedzup when I have had a listen. But certainly not going on the demo install going out tomorrow they are XT2000 way too powerful for it. I had hoped to but will go out with a rental rack instead. But was not my doing as I did not sort the order I wanted xt1000 & 800 for that.

so should get a sale all the same now that "That Co who we do not mention it's name" has removed the junk they were demonstrating. I cannot believe how awful it is. a 21" that honked monotonically shaped like a suitcase & a pr of little "boxes" that were equally as bad. lots of "Duralite" though.

You should read the "white paper" ( perhaps because of the Stationary it is printed on only) will only take a few minutes as contains zero data from any scientific research. just some plonker voicing his non academic opinions & completely guess-timated theories and "findings" from negligible research based on the principles of bullshit and Bollix. Comedic really, but suppose he thinks himself serious

But then as the "Feel the Bass never mind the quality Posse" keep on telling me on here audio is purely subjective.

Which gave me an idea...to start an agency for subjective Piano Tuners. I reckon it will catch on who know I may even get to do Concert tuning jobs  Wink

Binding posts??? Ya dinosaur! EEC regs... ha haaa. Look at the VFM as well as the audio sound quality, then work out why you need ( or how often) links now on all amps.

Fitted two 800's this week. Just great! Simple and effective

As a fellow 'tuner by ear' I reserve the right to add what bollix I likey.

no come on be serious now why on earth would you want consistency in tuning an Instrument surely subjective results are just as good aren't they? I mean who would know if the Piano was off-key? well apparently not some on here

When I used to work filmscore recording we did not worry ourselves about such things as being in tune it was only the RPO or some other well known Orchestra mostly and what they know about Music? anyway it is all subjective ask Beethoven he would tell you the same

Many of us who already have these amps have made up our minds about them. So whether you are picky or not won't make any difference to us. I would enjoy listening to a conversation between you and Andy.

"Picky"??? Perhaps some may blindly choose Kit by the consensus. But I am not some people. I choose kit by my own findings. Another's opinion carries little weight, some, but not a great deal. I also will look forward to a conversation with Andy too.

all good so far in small signal listening tests. Not got a CRO out as yet. And most likely forget that for now. But note surprisingly cool in quiescent state. Now for me that certainly begs a question. My AB's are Warmer in this state.

VFM is good BTW, But has little influence here.
NL4 thing is bit weird needs a little thought when using a single termination harness to rack panel. As a "Crossover" Cable is required to configure as an A/B LF/Hi unit. depends on your NL4 config as most "Out of the Box" is usually the norm for them to be ch1 with "Subs" on ch2. I usually reverse this, feels a bit weird to me chA as hi and chB as Low.  must be fun running out to NL8's. will find out later when I run a 4way system off them. I have a DDA carded for it already, 360 will follow. And will run them via the DSP Farm but only have 4ch's of Matrix here. So 5 & 6 way not possible so no MTT,s.

I would imagine that most amps are chosen after a good demo. I have always maintained on here that members can pick the Bones out of an Ant when it comes to it. My own Matrix were chosen after many discussions with them and of course really good demos in which they gave me amps just to go away and play with. Matrix was never going to be my first choice, but overall they won. Money is never an issue, but I think they turned out to be the best value in terms of Pounds per Watt, and of course the proof of the pudding and all that. They seem to suit my system very well.

My own AB FET amps run warm, as quiescent current is fairly high. When lower crossover distortion is present.

The Matrix FET amps I have used show no crossover distortion of course and run cool in comparison.

Not really got to the "Nitty Gritty" just yet but for the basics OPA's for Chipset. 2 or 4 in is a choice, as is 2x4 band or 4x2 band along with it. card is preferable to sweep but either sweep depends on finding all the necessary bits to do it. 4 band EQ on all outputs is a must will optimise for Lo/Mid1/Mid2/Hi bands. choice of metering Avg/Peak. choice of limiter RMS/Peak. Phase control @f3, May even give it response tuning there too, but not sure that one. PSU is a Puzzle at present But I reckon external I have a Soundcraft 200 kicking about, job done

It is 7U Rackmount. Yes 7U!! But then no need for other Outboard eh? It's in a 10U case so 1U @top 2U @bottom are free top a Comp//Gate/De-Esser etc & Bottom Monitor Amp.

I like building odd or crazy Whimsical stuff. I need to brush up on my terrible Metalwork skills. Hate working with the stuff. I prefer Wood so, will be a learning curve or find a Sheet Fab Man. Like my Contract Joiners. But do not know any.

I meet with them this week, discuss new Run of product. Different this one, No assembly just make "Flatpak" Panels. I will assemble to Enclosure, Paint, fit, test yada yada yada. But easy to knock out a couple of Pallets of 18mm BP. 

I go look at another Work unit this week 1800sq ft for a GRP workshop and bit of storage.

And goona try the 23" Gpu to run a 40" Panel think pinout is same and aspect matters more still a Samsung Screen from a deceased JVC somebody donated as a Puzzle.

 I would for the cans TO's etc just bit far to collect plus the harvest time so 2 days manhours if it stays low will send a driver perhaps

It's gone again. LOL

This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing.

I see they sold for £125....add on say £30 to have them sent by pallet,and the seller wanted "£40 packing fee",cough,makes them 200 quid the lot....so £40 each,about what they are worth.

I bought those 5 amps :) Went and picked them up myself, they were removed from a theatre.

I opened them up to find all genuine Hitachi J50, K135 MOSFETs, big power transformers and the caps are 100V 12000uf x 4

All 5 amps powered up fine and are in working condition.
