More to the point might be, "What are the differences between the C28b and the C60?" The C60 uses an AC701 tube and the transformer is in the power supply. The original ELA M260 is the same mic as the C60 but with the transformer inside the body. Both of these mics sound terrific if they have their original C28 capsule but lose a bit with the ck1
The C28c and the C61 are more similar. They both use the nuvistor 7586.
I have a C60 with the original CK28 capsule.

I have a C60 with the original CK28 capsule. And you're selling it to me for how much?

I mostly got camera gear, a Canon EF L series "red line" lens on the way, 14-70mm F/4, but I am about to push the button on uHe Repro and Dark Zebra.

I received my Proreplicas 1176 Rev G mod to silverface Rev H. What an awsome piece of compressor! Pushing vocals at -20db and sounds nothing but great. It's almost imposible to make it sound bad no matter what settings you use on it. I like it more for vocals than my Rev A blue stripe , (for pop vocals) Very happy with my new toy

Picked up a Herman Miller Mirra 2 yesterday from a rebuilder. It's changing my life already, shoulda done this years ago!

I remember being in high school dreaming about these. Now many years later. I’ve acquired several.

From what I've read, it sounds like it would be too flexible to provide any rigidity or support; yes/no? Thanks! -09 Back feels great. It's got maybe an inch of flex when you roll your body from side to side so it feels like it's moving with you a little when you reach for something. There's plenty of support. Definitely a lot more supportive than the Office Depot fake Aeron it replaced which has the mesh but no flex in the outer frame. Mine has the lumbar support which is effective and nicely adjustable. I've heard that complaint about the Embody (haven't had the pleasure of sitting in one) but not the Mirra, are we talking about the same one?
This one also came with some 3rd party rollerblade type wheels which I like. I don't think I'll put the standard ones back on.
The only thing I don't like about these and Aeron is that they're ugly, especially in basic black or gray. Many of their other chairs are damn cool looking.

And then I questioned myself because of all the “meh” comments about the later revisions. I think a lot of people likes the early Versions Rev A,D,F ,most for instruments that Benefits from their low end enhacement and distortion, but for delicates tasks like vocals i prefer the refined clearer Rev G ,H sound, because its cleaner so it Let me pass vocals 2 times in the compressor and still sound great even with heavy compression , so i feel it's more versátile for vocal tasks. Passing vocals in my Rev A two or more times in ,could be too much color and distortion, and then i cannot take it back,and on the contrary i can add color and distortion later if i want. Robert at Proreplicas uses exactly the original high quality parts for their 1176's , so no shortcuts. It's a boutique product made by hand

Just arrived today. I don't own the original Roland so I can't A/B it. But I plugged it in and I like it. Of course, I like chorus. Also, this was my first purchase from Thomann--no problems and it arrived in under a week.

Thanks! I have an Aeron and love it, but now I need a 2nd chair. Was considering the Mirra, but from what little I can discern from descriptions online, I didn't know if the back was rigid enough to provide support when in a "locked" position (not reclining). And I think the Aeron is pretty cool looking, no matter the color. Thanks again for the info! -09

That's such a workhorse lens, Guitar . Does well in all kinds of weather, too. Very timely, thanks, I might go out for some uncomfortable shooting in this grey day, or soon. I got this one because it goes a lot wider than the other two prime lenses I started with. (50mm and 70mm equivalent.) With my Speedbooster this one is something like 24-55mm equivalent, which seems pretty useful for most things. My first zoom lens too, which is interesting! The weight and size actually gives it stability in the hands, which is great, it's not too heavy at all. I have a Canon backpack coming too, so hopefully I can set up some outdoor scenes, maybe even video if I get ambitious enough.

Today the STAM Audio 47 that I ordered under the SA76 ADx delay program discount arrived at last. I finished paying for it in October and today it appeared. Weighing about 20 lbs. With the power supply and mic it’s a heavy case. It comes with a decent shock mount and a long cable, which is nice. ibb.co/3dYjysKI thought I’d do a mic comparison because I never have. I got a Karaoke track of “Fly Me To The Moon” and sung two verses, first on an AKG 414EB from the ’70’s, then the STAM 47, then the Chandler REDD. Three short .wav files are here: www.dropbox.com/sh/af15ttleboxa9m6/AAC84d974PA1RZdVtXWtMt7ra?dl=0I claim no prowess or facility with this style of music, but it was a 47, so I thought it appropriate. All mics are dry with no processing of any kind. There’s three different performances, and the balances are by ear (set with the track louder, then dimming the track level,), so just listen to the sound of the mics, not the levels. All were recorded through a Metric Halo ULN-8, the Chandler Line In, the other two with MH’s mic pres, which are pretty clean. I must say, stepping up to the 47 and singing into it, I felt kinda special. I’m happy with it, I think it sounds great. The Chandler was set to normal, about ⅔ max output. All three mics were on cardioid. I’m happy I have two really nice tube mics now. I’m wondering if the 414 needs refurbing. With the STAM discount, the SA-47 was a bargain. I still haven’t gotten the Stam 76 yet!
