Magna 2480
« on: March 16, 2006, 09:15:46 pm »
I recently acquired a Magna 2480, ser#M 01340.  Does anyone out there have any paperwork on these ?  User manual and/or schematics would be nice to have, although not absolutely necessary  Any ideas of age/year of manufacture ?  
     It's rack mount, and the original finish is brown and cream.
Thanx,  jlloyd3112

Hello:
 That unit uses a motherboard / daughterboard setup so if it gets cranky you can undo the screws and remove the channel strips. sometimes just a good cleaning brings them back. The brown and cream units were from the 70's. In their last production run they were grey w/white. I still have the very last one produced. Works great. I ended up installing balancing transformers in the input because as designed the are unbalanced. I do have some channel strips up in the attic but I don't remember what kind of shape they are in.
