Tom,

Larry Bloomfield, before he passed away, tried to get me to buy one of those 
Henry SixMix Consoles. I got to really looking at it, but from the looks of it, 
in my personal opinion, it looks more like a "Remote Mixer", than a "Radio 
Studio" Console.  I have never seen one in person, but from the looks of it, 
it's quite small and its like having just a little Mackie or Behringer Mixer in 
your Control/Studio Room.

In what I call the "old days" for me, the Console Manufactures built console 
right, they were pretty, and looked like "Real Radio".  These days, they are 
big, long in depth, and standing in front of one make me feel like I'm in a 
recording studio, not a radio studio. The old Gates Consoles were cool, so were 
BE, Autogram, Collins, etc. In small town stations, it felt like real radio. I 
own a small 1 KW, Daytime station, in a small town, so that's what I really 
like, a console that screams "Local Radio".

I don't think the Henry Six Mix fills the bill, in my opinion. Yes, it works 
good from what I know about it, but Henry Engineering could have done a better 
job in building a cabinet for that mixer, that would look nice in a small radio 
station, that's just me.
