Nope, that's correct. It's a BG808s with 12" tubes. A couple of people here have seen those units. Apparently a typical 9" set is sharper according to those who have seen them..designed for simulation use, not for HT. The set was offered to me about 3 weeks ago. I told him I'd give him $250 for parts.

I guess his expectations of a selling price are somewhat higher..Very Happy


Last year some folks flipped one on the German Ebay for €11K.

Split packs are rare.


Not for the 812. All I have seen for sale have been split packs. The 912 was a monolithic beast, perhaps Barco made a split on special order, but split packs are nowhere in the product literature.

I've seen several split pack 909. Flight simulator use, I saw 8 in use in San Diego, Camp Pendleton where I flew the Bell helicopter simulator.

That's the 909, and the 908, not the 912, though, completely different all sheetmetal housing than the 909/908.
