Better quality alternative to Echo Indigo for headphone use?

I have an echo Indigo I/O that I use when it's not practical to drag all of my equipment with me.

While it's on a different planet from standard laptop sound, I was wondering if there was a better quality alternative. This card has received rave reviews, but I'm not too impressed by the sound.

Need a good "snake box" coiling system.

We do quite a bit of recording for various shows around town and now our snake is getting pretty beat up.

We would like to know if there are any recommendations of a "snake coiling system" or similar.

For example, a wind up box that we can use to wind up our snake and then it's protected for the road, etc...

Buying new gear, Your suggestions ?

Hi Folks, my first post here :D

It's time to spend my hard-earned-money (about $4000) and buy some gear before we will start to record our album. Our music goes to nu-jazz/ worldmusic/ downtempo category (vocals, piano, saxophone/clarinet, acoustis bass, drums and some sampler stuff).

Now I have the following :

second-hand back electrets vs condensers.

I'm wondering if it's a good idea to buy mics like the AT-4033 on ebay, or should I stick to true condensers? I'm concerned about the degradation in SNR over time. I know that matters have improved greatly with modern designs, and that modern electrets have a longer life-span than ever before, so should I be concerned if one of these mics is more than ten years old?
