Woah - enough with the Gear-carrots of temptation!
Have you actually heard the Shadow Hills comp? I wasn't aware they had models in circulation yet. Are you sure it's going to be an improvement on the 33609 as a mix comp? (sorry - totally unhelpful questions!

)
I'm really torn between getting a 'monster' compressor (Phoneix, Shadow Hills, VT-7, Gyraf G10 etc.) for the 2-bus, and a 'classic' compressor (33609 et. al). Part of me wants tubes, part of me wants Neve - maybe I should just sell my children and buy both!
