([adverts.ie](https://www.adverts.ie/mixing-desks/soundcraft-spirit-studio-24-track-desk/39344737?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Adverts.ie \u2014 Kilmore, Dublin**  \n   \u201cSoundcraft Spirit Studio 16\u201d for **\u20ac200**. ([adverts.ie](https://www.adverts.ie/results/soundcraft?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Adverts.ie \u2014 Cork**  \n   \u201cSpirit Folio SX 20 Channel Analog Mixer and Power Supply\u201d \u2014 this isn\u2019t a *Spirit Studio*, but close / related. Price is **\u20ac350**.

([adverts.ie](https://www.adverts.ie/results/soundcraft?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \ud83c\udf0d Alternatives Outside Ireland / For Import\n\nIf the above doesn\u2019t match what you need, here are some options that could be shipped to Ireland (or close by):\n\n- **eBay Ireland / UK sellers**:  \n  Multiple Soundcraft Spirit models (including \u201cSpirit Studio 16\u201d, etc.). Some listings are explicitly Ireland-only or from the UK, which might make shipping easier. Prices vary\u2014one \u201cSpirit Studio 16\u201d without PSU is about **\u20ac264** from UK. ([ebay.ie](https://www.ebay.ie/sch/i.html?_nkw=soundcraft+spirit+mixer&utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Reverb**:  \n  A *Spirit Studio 24/8/2* listed as \u201cUsed \u2013 Good\u201d for **\u20ac448.59**. Be sure to check shipping costs and power compatibility. ([reverb.com](https://reverb.com/item/60703570-soundcraft-spirit-studio-mixer-24-8-2?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u26a0\ufe0f Things to Check Before Buying\n\n- **Power Supply**: A lot of older Spirit Studios have power supplies that are either missing or require repair. Make sure the listing says \u201cwith PSU\u201d or check you can get or repair one. e.g. in the Reverb listing it\u2019s included but serviced. ([reverb.com](https://reverb.com/item/60703570-soundcraft-spirit-studio-mixer-24-8-2?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Condition**: \u201cVintage analogue\u201d is often used loosely. Request photos, ask about crackling faders, working LEDs, channel inserts, EQ sweeps, etc.  \n- **Size & Transport**: These mixers are heavy and bulky. The 32-channel Spirit Studios are particularly large. Compare delivery vs collection costs.  \n- **Authenticity & Labeling**: Different Spirit-series mixers (Studio vs Live vs Folio) share similar names but different features. Confirm exactly which version you\u2019re buying.  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can run a live search for only *Spirit Studio 24/8/2- or 32-channel* versions in Ireland with photos and contact details. Want me to do that?"

Here are the details:\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udd0d Options Found (Outside Ireland / Non-Parts Listings)\n\n1. **Reverb**  \n   A used *Spirit Studio 16/8/2* listed in \u201cVery Good\u201d condition. This listing is not explicitly \u201cfor parts\u201d but could potentially be useful as a donor unit if the price works out once you factor in shipping/import. ([reverb.com](https://reverb.com/item/31431347-soundcraft-spirit-studio-16-8-2?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **ebay UK**  \n   There\u2019s a *Spirit Studio 16/8* listed as \"mostly functional, some defects\", which may make it more feasible as a parts unit. Shipping from the UK to Ireland could make this viable depending on condition. ([ebay.co.uk](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/298041122855?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Kleinanzeigen (Germany)**  \n   One board (\u201creparaturbed\u00fcrftig\u201d = needs repair) for \u20ac200. This appears more like a \u201cfor parts\u201d scenario, though it's in Germany. ([kleinanzeigen.de](https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/soundcraft-spirit-studio-16-8-2-mischpult-reparaturbeduerftig/3128468338-172-7982?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u2b50\ufe0f Potential Leads in Ireland / What to Try\n\nEven though I couldn\u2019t find a confirmed parts-only unit in Ireland, here are some useful tactics:\n\n- **Local platforms to watch**:  \n  - Adverts.ie  \n  - Donedeal.ie  \n  - Gumtree Ireland  \n  Filter for \u201cSpirit Studio\u201d, \u201cSpirit Mixer\u201d, \u201cfor parts\u201d, \u201cbroken\u201d.\n\n- **Sound-tech shops**  \n  Reach out to local music shops or repair specialists; sometimes they have broken consoles or know of them via their network.\n\n- **Facebook / Gear-exchange groups**  \n  Look in Irish audio / studio gear groups; people sometimes post \u201cbroken Spirit Studio\u201d or \u201cparts sale\u201d.\n\n---\n\n### \u2699\ufe0f Spare Parts Options\n\nIf getting a full unit for parts proves difficult, sourcing specific parts might be more efficient:\n\n- **ersatzteile-24** (Germany) has parts for Spirit Studio and related Soundcraft units. They don\u2019t have the whole unit, but you can order modules or components. ([ersatzteile-24.com](https://www.ersatzteile-24.com/SOUNDCRAFT/SOUNDCRAFT_STUDIO_SPIRITSTUDIO.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Authorized Harman / Soundcraft resellers** may carry legacy parts or fader caps etc.  \n- Communities and forums, where owners might have spare cards/modules to sell.\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can dig up current listings *in Ireland* with contact info, timestamps, photos, prices, specifically searching for \u201cparts-only\u201d units. Do you want me to scan for that now?"
