| i think that a lot of the bashers of ua and other high end stuff either resent that they cant afford it, havn't tried it or there just isn't enough flashing lights and nobs on it to peek their interest. i think whats notable to say about alot of this gear is that there isn't anything on it that doesn't need to be there. and if your buying this stuff the companies assume that you already know how what a compressor, limiter ect is. i'm in the fortunent posission to pretty much have my pick of units to borrow. true that some of it is pricy and probly wont find it's way into my rack but more often then not i'm impressed with most of it. it is how and what you use it for and not every peice of gear will work for every thing. that's why god invented bigger racks. companys like UA, NEVE, TOFT, SSL and all the rest didn't get where they are by smoke and mirrors. the gear speaks for it'self... especially for those fortunant enough to be able to a/b it. i for one wish i had two of every peice of gear ever made. and i'm not ashamed to admit that the people who are lucky enough to have used it all have my deepest admirataion as well as envy |
