That box looks as solid as it's reputation.

Hello can i see a pic of the amp, nice shots man.I always wanted to see what the innards looks like good build quality too.

Sorry Jimski,I put it back together already. I don't think there is much of an amp though. The main unit is a preamp and the speakers each have their own built in amps. There is a little power indicator led on each speaker to show that each amp is working. If I take it apart again,Ill be sure to get you a pic though,sorry man.

wow skip looks like a spaghetti western in there. Ide hate to have 2 mod the speakers in there you cant even see em, nice job man

Hey Tim,the speakers are detachable she's a 3 piecer.

haha my bad scot

LOLOLOL!!!!! Thats cool man.

ok cool

It isn't a mass consumer BBX, definitely. Too many boards, with off board connectors ... well designed and well built. Tape mecha looks militar grade ... There's BBX for many years ..

Thanks Success It still works like brand new.

Class A just to see the insides you can tell she's got a lot going.

Nice job on the clean up !!! Now she looks good inside and out.
Build quality is superb

Now That'a a complex looking box. "Spaghetti Junction" in there.

Thanks guys! It looks like a real mess in there from the pic, but it is really quite easy to work on.

Nice Job! Boy it looks tough even though it is simple as you say.
