I'm not sure if this console would be very applicable in the studio setting, but it seems extremely cheap ($5200) for 24 channels of Neve preamps, EQs, and Compressors. I don't know which model preamps it has (broadcast console) and since I don't have the cash to buy it, I don't feel the need ot look into it further. Just thought one of you may be interested.
Here's another one somewhat interesting, although I find it hard to believe they will let it go that cheap.

That 5100 Neve (those are 4 bus modules + L/R) is a good deal if
That 5100 Neve (those are 4 bus modules + L/R) is a good deal if the price stays down as it is. It's a very good little board but does require some maintenance. 1st thing, it will absolutely need to be recapped from head to toe. There's a lot of caps in there...I know...I did an entire recap for an 84 channel 5100 (slightly different module) and it took a long time and $$. There's over 100 caps in each of the modules on the console on ebay (way more in the desk I did). This will have to be done ideally every 2-4 years. The sound of the desk was completely different after the recap. It came to life and sounded the way it was meant to.
Ouch I'd buy that if it worked and I had room.. too bad :(
