• 12-position Grayhill gain switch
• Bourns output trim pot
• Uses an IC opamp, but the PCB also provides the option to use 2520-style opamps
• 5-LED VU Meter

Price: $299

• $349 for one channel + PSU + power transformer
• $598 for two channels + PSU + power transformer.

Adjusted Cost: $398 (two channels)

The total cost for a two-channel unit including the X-12 rack case ($190) and two PSU-cables ($4 ea.) is $796, making the adjusted price/channel $398.
