Pre's are never a bad thing to have, but great mic's are an investment.

I'll nominate the Peluso P47... a pair even! A GREAT mic that IS a good as the original.

Possibly the Peluso P12?!?

Haven't seen the ViPre, so I can't say anything about it. However, Averill's 1073 or 312 might be a nice alternative.

Anybody who has any experience with the Brauner Valvet? And the Valvet compared to the U87?

I find it really helps to know someone who owns a boat. (Doesn't even have to be a very big boat.) Makes you feel frugal by comparison.

Nice list though. Have fun!

Went crazy? That's probably 6 months income for me....gross. lol. I may be exaggerating but only by a little. How sad. How terribly, terribly sad. *goes off to contemplate a second job...at Mc D's.*

Dont feel bad.. This is six months income for me as well...

I did some takes with the DPAs on acoustic guitar the other day. Amazing. I had a hard time deceiding wich sdc to get. I really liked the DPAs. The only thing I was afraid of was that they might be a bit too "clean"... I almost went with some Schoeps instead. Its really hard to deceide sometimes. But now that I`ve had the DPAs for a few days a really tried them out; no problem. Pushing the input a bit on the earlybird solves the whole "too clean"problem.
