Rackmount Triple Rec

[mikebavec]

is there any way to rackmount my triple rec, if so how? kits or anything? thanks!

there are no kits do that, you could take the rack case and trip.chassi to a steel fabrication company and show them exactly what you want... im sure it wouldnt be to exspensive

how wide are the pcb's inside a recto?

if its any wider than 17 3/4" it will not fit into any rackmount chassis. have a look inside. if the pcbs fit maybe its possible with the help of a very good tech.

or you could just get a rackmount dual recto??

Obviously it's too wide for a rack.

You could get a rack for it that also has room for an amp head, if that's what you meant. I wouldn't recommend having the insides removed and put in a different chassis.

Are those pretty common?

I know they exist but actualy getting one is the problem

Or you could get a Recto Preamp + Recto 2:100, use the dedicated inputs and there you have a pure dual rectifier in rack form.

The PCB's on the Triple are probably as wide as the chassis, almost, due to all the tube sockets, which probably all are on the same board.

Here is the inside of a Triple Recto:

I too do not think it would fit in a rackmount without some serious modifications. Rackmount Dual Recs pop up from time to time, but if you really need a rackmount, and don't want to spend some time looking for the racktifier, go with the Rectifier Preamp and Stereo 100 power amp like mentioned above.

The other option is to rack the whole head unit in a flight case that is built to hold the head, like this:
