Sorry - but we will try to continue with the A-100 as it is (same knobs,
same panels). It's all a matter of taste. And if we change to other knobs
I'm quite sure that many other customers would complain. If someone wants
other knobs he may replace the knobs as the 6 mm 18 theeth shaft is a
standard. From my point of view continuity is important for a product like
the A-100 system. I would probably change some things if I could put the
wheel of history into reverse (but not the knobs, the panels and the
printing as I still like them).

Best wishes
