|
|
Hi All,
My beloved 1209s died on me and it is the quadrupler.
Does anybody still have one by chance that is willing to sell it?
Regards Jörg

It doesn't. Years ago a few people tried it, including myself. One guy sent me 3 quads that he rebuilt. Two triggered the EHT shutdown LED instantly, and the 3rd one worked for 30 minutes, then arced and failed.

To add to this:
Also consider what a brand new Quad from Barco would have normally cost. That's probably what these would cost (or even more) if a special order was somehow done. It definitely would not be a discounted Curt Palme price where Curt bases his prices on what he pays, but more be like a new price from a dealer.
So that list of people willing to buy would be even smaller and nobody would want to pay retail on these. Someone who bought a Barco CRT projector new from a dealer for $50K+ wouldn't mind paying $2K for a new Quad if theirs broke, but people who are finding used/old Barcos for free or next to nothing will not. (Note: I don't know what the price would be, just making up numbers to make my point).

If you decide to part out would you consider selling some of the boards to me? I might be interested depending on cost.

Hi, I had the same problem and found one locally.
It is the old version R761743 whyle in my 1209/sE was installend R762833.
Looking the dedicated service bulletin an old quad on a new machine will make oscillations.
Did someone experienced this?
Anyway the quad on 1209 is the real Achille's heel.
Thanks,
Alberto
