Found this in my file cabinet.
The second owner had the RM mods done.

I purchased my MAC1500 post fire for $15 and spent another $85 on replacement parts (this was in 1993). The power switch is the other high failure item thus the use of a power strip for owners in the know.

Yes, I use a Tripp Lite.

My first Mac1500 was a basket case! This was about 20 years ago. It had a mint walnut cabinet but was toast inside. My buddy went through it replacing whatever was cooked. I don't remember why, but I sold it to a guy at work. I'm guessing it was to get my C22, MR71 and MC275.
I did regret it and when my current one showed up, especially with the RM mods done, I jumped at the chance to get another.

Did yours have the case?
