The FLEX Label System
There are far too many possible FLEX system configurations for us to stock a front plate custom made to suit each one. To still allow customers to have proper labels for their pre-amps we use label plates. Just let us know how many of each plate you need when you order. Here are the initially available plates
Mute Plate ------------- On / Off Toggle Plate ------------- Volume Plate
"1 / 2" Rotary Plate ------------- 1 / 2 Toggle Plate -------------6 Input Select Plate
