Faceplate removal on B&K Ref 50 S2

[walter duque]

I have the B&K Ref 50 S2 processor and would like to replace the rack mount faceplate. It has a silver one now but I picked up a blue one. There are only four screws on the front. I am a little afraid to take it off since I don't know if the buttons and everything else is going to stay in place after removal. Is this a simple task or would I be opening up a can of worms, that I can't close. It looks simple, but is it?

It is probably simple, but without a service manual, I can not tell you for certain. It was out together in the first place so obviously it is not an insoluble task.

YES, Walter, it is very easy, just remove all knobs (just pull them out) and the four screws, and the front face plate will just come out on its own. Just put the other nice blue one on it's place, put the four screws back, pop the knobs back in, and voila! A blue midnight satin face plate, that will add a nice looking touch to your system.

Cheers Walter & be cool man,
Bob

And the smart thing to do would be call 1-800-543-5252 and chat with a tech, just to cya.

I'll bet he has his new rack mount faceplate installed, before he can even use that phone #.

Got my driver for my sub. I'll give it a shot tonight if I am sober long enough. I got to be straight putting on that faceplate. Drinking is just one of my job requirements.

Hey Walter, that's great man. Just be careful with all those subs around, you've got to remain cool man.

And you know what Walter, I did search for that woofer driver that you show me the other day, but I coudn't find anything on it.
Looks German built, with that heavy frame. Wow! Talk about heavy duty!
The closest thing that I could come across was from MTX, but that couldn't be now, right?

Anyway Walter, always a pleasure to chat with you man. You're one of a heck of a nice fellow, and I hope you're doing very cool, plus a lotta love in your life, cause you deserve a lot of it.

Very best regards & don't overcook those filet mignons,
Bob

Whatever Scott. I'd rather work with people, but if you don't want to, it's your own choice.
Thanks for the bad rep again.

Thanks for all your help guys but my wife trashed my faceplate by accident last night. I had it in between 2 pieces of cardboard in a cardboard box and she disposed of the box. I was even watching when the garbageman picked up the trash this morning. Well that's life. And thanks again.

That nice blue faceplate is trashed now!

Nice wife Walter.

Oh well, just like you said, it's life. About the trash field? Or beat up your wife?
Or get another nice blue faceplate? Or all of the above?

Cool man, you just took it like a real man.

Take care, and take care of your wife too.

LOL. I know Walter. I was just kidding. You do have in fact a great wife, she cleans all the trash that you leave around the house. LOL.
That's true love man. She's the real deal, the true blue satin silk night faceplate of your system.
