Why worry, Just get Bob C to sell you one of his several $200 5370A/B's
for a reasonable $100 profit (plus shipping) and you'll beat anything
I've seen on eBay in the last year. Everyone should be happy. Bob can
can take the profit then (soon) easily get another to replace it at his
perceived value.

It's OK for you guys in the USA with lots of old HP gear around but for us
over the other side of the pond we can only dream of those sort of surplus
quantities - let alone the prices!!!! Still, it's nice to dream.....
A 'purpose built' design of a front end might well have quite a few people
interested over here.

Hi
If you are going to do a full boat implementation and work out all the
isolation issues and packaging, the question becomes:
Will it be better bang for the buck than a ~ $200 HP 5370?
Isn't that the classic New vs Used discussion, though? Those 5370s
won't be available for $200 all the time
The used equipment dealers charge more like $750-2k for that, depending
if it's an A or a B, or if it's calibrated, etc. The lowest price on
eBay is around $700
