Has anyone out there had any experience with a product called "The Ball?" It is/was made my Adcom and seemed like a pretty good video interface idea but no one that I know of has a clue as to what it did, what it included, how it worked or how much it cost! Any info on the product would be most helpful to me. Daniel Tonks 'mentioned' it briefly in a 'review' a couple of years ago but there seemed to be no further information on it. I called Adcom and they told me that they no longer manufacture that product but it can still be 'aquired' through Adcom dealers. Every Adcom dealer I spoke with had no idea what I was talking about! For a seemingly 'good idea' the thing just vanished! Thanks for any info in advance.

Jeff, I've never seen that unit, but I remember reading a review in Audio magazine. The reviewer raved about it. You can find a link to that issue (May 1998) at:
