I remember you telling the story on Gearslutz. Didn't it take you about 2000 man-hours to build it? I frequently tell the youngsters about the guy who single-handedly built a console from scratch at age 23, which is still in service today. It helped me work up the nerve to tackle a major modification project on our Wheatstone console.Brian Roth said:Gentlemen,
I admit to being "off-line" from this forum for many months (perhaps a year or three?) due to work (designing/installing hi-def video facliities....The Dark Side! lol) and other projects/reasons. I stumbled across this thread, and saw a reference/link early in the thread to the Stupid Things A Youngster Might Do <G!>:

Hey Brian, I'm love to hear your thoughts on the 9098 design. What type of IC's and what voltages is it using? I know it's full of transformers. I've read that it runs cooler than most desks and needs less re-capping, is this true?Brian Roth said:Well, since the original thread, I reinstalled that huge Amek 9098 desk into its new home in Mexico City.
Brian Roth said:The 9098i has both surface mount and through hole components. Next time I'm at that studio, I'll take a look to refresh my memory about the ratio between the two types of components.
Both it and the earlier 9098 can be power hogs if they are as large as the two I've worked on.
