| I've always like the Beta57 on top of the snare...not every time, but most of the time it sounds cool. |

| The TubePre is good for it's price, but I have to agree that the Eureka Pre is much cleaner. Now whether or not you need the comp and eq is a whole different story, but it is nice to have sometimes. ... |

| Give the Groove Tubes Speaker Emulator a try. Blows the pants off a Hot Plate, in my humble opinion. |

| On the low end, the octava mc012's sound pretty good, or the AT pro37r's. Can't really go wrong with the pro37r's. In the middle price range, I like the akg c451b's and sometimes the akg414's. Groo ... |

larrye,
You probably didn't damage anything on the Brick, but I'm glad you found the correct way to hook it up. How are you liking it? |

| Firewire will power the firebox. What ghellquist is saying is that there is probably little chance that you'll be able to find a laptop with a built-in 6 pin firewire slot. You'll have to buy a $20- ... |

| My DAW is in a 4U rackmount case and I love it. I got it for under $100 on ebay I believe. It is pretty noisy, but there are some real heavy duty fans in there. I have it in one of my shockmounted ... |

| I think the Presonus firebox is your best bet. It can be powered by your laptop as long as you use a 6 pin firewire cable (a normal firewire cable). If your laptop is like mine it uses a 4 pin firew ... |

| 24/96 on good converters sounds great, but I end up going 24/44.1 about 95% of the time. It just saves so much disk space and processing power. I also feel like some of the mediocre converters do no ... |

| I'm going to echo what most of the other replies have said. If I've got to choose my first outboard comp, I'm going with the distressor. You are getting not only a good sounding comp, but a very ver ... |
