The MX-180 was the flagship of the Rodec club mixer series for decades. In the form of the Rodec - BUNK 01, its legendary phono/line preamplifier and equalizer are now available again in a new, appealing configuration. Hi-fi fans will not only appreciate the generous sound stage with precise imaging and warm, detailed reproduction, but also the visually appealing solid wood housing, designed and manufactured by Dutch wooden furniture designer Eletta Daemen. Rodec has further developed the technology and added a second, discrete phono stage alongside the popular input stage of the MX-180. This second phono stage offers a deeper and more relaxed sound as an alternative to the typical MX-180 sound, which perfectly complements the Rodec stage originally designed more for parties. You can switch between the two phono stages at the touch of a button. An additional gain of +20 dB has also been added so that quieter records and pickup systems can be easily adjusted to the desired level. This gain can be set via a dip switch on the circuit board. The reissued EQ of the original MX-180 offers a wide control range of +/- 12 dB in the three frequency bands Low, Mid and High, thus enabling a wide variety of sound shaping. The sound always remains musical and is used for optimum output and adjustment of the audio material. The Rodec BUNK 01 is also available in three other colors.
In the early 1980s, the RODEC SoundMachines SM200 and SM300 shaped the pro audio market. Their successors were the MX series models, with the MX18, introduced in 1986, quickly becoming the “reference” in the DJ sector and still serving as a model for modern professional mixers today. The MX180, the successor to the MX18, was launched in 1990 and its main innovations were a crossfader and an XLR master output. Between 1984 and 2008, over 20 different models of the MX series were released.
The Rodec - Bunk 01 preamplifier combines a line input and two differently tuned phono stages in one device. One of these is the original MX180 stage, which provides the unmistakable, lively Rodec party sound. The other is a completely new discrete stage developed by Rodec for a deeper, more relaxed sound. Switching between the two phono circuits is effortless at the touch of a button. In addition, the preamplifier offers the option of activating a gain of +20 dB for perfect reproduction of quieter records.
The analogue stereo equalizer is a new edition of the original MX-18 EQ, with separate control ranges for Low/High and Presence (Mid). These offer an extended and independent tone control to precisely adjust the sound. Unlike the “kill EQs” of modern DJ mixers, this equalizer is designed to musically refine and optimally shape your favorite recordings.
Carefully crafted by hand in Belgium. The cabinet is made of 2 mm thick, precisely lacquered aluminum plates, robust metal knobs and a solid piece of environmentally friendly, locally sourced wood. This was skillfully handcrafted by renowned furniture artisan Eletta Daemen to ensure the highest quality and durability.
