Re: A-183-2 Please say it's true

2009-01-28 by Doug

Okay so is the A-183-2 really be coming out in a month or so, or has 
it changed?

2) Will it possibly be able to handle audio so that I can use it to 
amplify audio with gain>1? 

3) Is the A-119 really the standard answer (really the only 
reasonable answer)for audio gain in euro format? 

3b) Is this ridiculous situation?

4) Should I just DIY a module and make an entry into the modular 
market?

5) Does anyone care?

6) Have you seen that latest whiz bang module from A$$ Plunderers R 
Us?
