    Your best bet is great plains audio in Oklahoma unfortunately. There the only source for genuine parts. The only other issue is I think the business is circling the drain.

    Aren't 2243's a rare bird? I've never even seen on. But you can make a 2245 from a 2240 frame, and those are cheap, at least in the USA. Can't say about other parts of the world.

    I don't necessarily think that's correct. Yuppieism has more to do with income status. Hipsters you can find in all income brackets. I call my brother a yuppie quite often. But he does have kids now...
