Hi Lads

Just bought this little thing on ebay but cant find much on the iterweb about them. It looks interesting and has the funk appeal. Any of you had an experience with them IE in terms on sound quality ETC.?

Pics please, for those that don't remember it!

I'm hoping it's the old fashioned wide desktop calculator shaped model. if so, I remember it as being nice sounding and with a good tuner, but a built-in loudness contour in the volume control - I think there were gain sliders too, but it's a very long time ago now.

Sorry if I have it all wrong..

I have a review of it in a '73 ish magazine somewhere.... it was well regarded at the time.

Yes. I had one briefly many years ago. It sounded very good.

When I see a picture of one, I'm reminded of the Metrosound ST60 amp.

That was a decent amp.

No, me neither...

I once had a perfect working ST20E and an ST60 which I bought for buttons. The ST20E was delightful (I have another which needs some fettling) but the ST60 was awfuly harsh soundingl, I suspect knackered caps, but didn't have the expertise to find out.

Here's a pic I nicked off the internet of the Scan Dyna I remember :)
