I tried to pm you, no luck. Can you pm me an email address? I'll pay for the tube. That's very gracious of you.

Here's my Premier 17 with it's clear Plexi tube cover...had one of the Mech E's at work run this up on SolidWorks and the model shop made it up for me.



I like the looks of it a lot more than the painted metal one, and it matches the LP70's plexi tube guards.

Hi Rafale,

Thank you! I would love to get the GAT at some point, I bet yours is wonderful. My ET5 really makes the MC601's bloom. It's just what I was looking for.

Joe

You'll have to give us your impression of how it stacks up against the Burmester 077.
