Time Machine Survey

Time Machine Survey

2005-01-24 by John Blacet

Hi All:

I'm planning the next run of our ever popular Time Machine. There is a 
possibility of producing a MOTM style complete kit, although it appears 
that we have sold a large number of the "basic" kits over the years. 
Thus, we may have saturated the MOTM market, making the complete kit a 
great idea but a bad seller!

One alternative is to make a PCB version for the MOTM style and have J. 
Larry provide the FPs, brackets on a one by one basis. (Panels get very 
expensive when you are only making a few). Builders would still have to 
scrounge MOTM style pots, jacks, knobs etc. A lot more work for the builder.

Or, we could just continue the status quo and offer our standard board 
for the "Basic" kit.

So the survey question is what would *you* buy in the next year?

Responses off list to "Time Machine Survey" blacet@....

Thanks for your time!

If we had an unbuilt TM kit (or 2) would it be possible to get the
additional parts through you then?
