Does anyone have one of Mark Lord's custom docks that they'd be willing to part with? I'm in the market for one.

Thanks

Mark, did you ever post a plan for these? I might be bothered to cut a couple out if I had the proper dimensions.

I have one somewhere I didn't end up really using. Where/who are you?

I've got two and could be convinced to part with one.

I think I might once have passed on a scan of the complex side pieces, from which exact dimensions could be obtained for the critical measurements. But dunno.

Are you back in the states now? I think there are some side pieces still in the workshop, and I could mail you a pair. The rest is relatively straightforward to fabricate.

Cheers

I sent a PM to a couple of you who said you had one. The DIY route does sound interesting as well, but I think I have too many other around the house projects at the moment. Thanks for posting that link by the way.

I'm planning to modify the dock by adding a male to female toslink jack, so it can plug directly into the back of my mkII with the eutronix daughter card upgrade.

This should provide a nice and tidy platform to feed audio to
all rooms throughout the house via a four way active toslink splitter. I plan to use the Empeg Remote android app to control the Empeg from remote.
