I figure that they will be good to have in the collection, plus the 500
series offers quite a few pieces from different companies. I like that the
512's are a bit faster, I think that will be a good addition for certain
situations.
Now with the lunchbox, it will be like trying to fill up a mec with i/o cards again..
Cheers,
TC

Nope, The "big daddies"
I don't recommend these pres at all. I was involved in a nasty scam involving
OSA and a former employee,
It is a long story, but even if the others sound great, after dealing with
them, I;d go elsewere.
That dude as Eisen is pretty cool. If I could I'd send him my L3s for a pair
of his.
But really over at GS the P1 seems to get the love, that said I may be getting
a pair of 512's
The Shadow hills buzz seems to have stopped now that they are out and about.
