Enjoy! I really like your guys' pictures of your guns.

wow!

- hey -- it looks just like ...

What a nerd....

That's some serious $$$!!!!!!!!

They be rockstars you know....

Cool. Did I mention that we have a new mic pre coming out soon? ;)

Ian

Well Ian, if you need a field-tester i'm your guy! Maybe I could jam some of those baby Focals in my carry on, too!

I'll make a note of that, Jeremy. We actually are involved with a Montreal electronics company who is developing a pre which we will have next year.

Did you mug Fletcher for the Telefunkens?

Ian

Seems like the KY would clog up the mesh part... :)

With leather?

No, I got them from TF directly; I have a few cool things coming up so I get to use them and eval/review and take pics, etc. The only thing I've ever got from Fletcher is one of those Drawmer "mercenary edition" stereo comps.

it's no RCA ribbon :p

Thank goodness for that! :) those AEA RCA copies are nice, though.

You mean you didn't get a mid-afternoon hangover from drinking tequila in the morning with him?

BTW are you going to the AES show in SFO next month? We are having a party the night before the show to launch something new from Focal . . .

Ian

Well every porn mag I have ever seen had at least one picture of some not so attractive variety of the female persuasion.... here's my contribution... got four of these off of Craiglist for $36 for all four... Not anywhere near the best of quality, but the best I have personally owned... Your stuff is drop dead gorgeous!!!

Not to hijack or anything, but does anyone know what they would offer for something like this...

Well, aren't we just a ray of effing sunshine.

Futures, IMO that thing is worth a few hundred bucks.

I think I just had a "mic-gasm" :D

Seriously, those are beautiful. Not even in the same league, but the closest thing I have is one of these small diaphragm, tube-powered Altecs

Please allow me to be the first:

"It looks just like a Telefunken U-47".

For what it's worth, a quick EBay search showed a U-47 with an asking price of about $10,000.
