Where's a good place to rent microphones?

I own a fair share of great dynamics, and a few mid level condensers. I want to be able to try many mics for different sessions/sources. I'm not trying to take out a 10k loan to buy 5 mics, which is why I'm seeing if there is a great rental option to try the various exotic/boutique mics out there, plus give different colors to my sessions.

Retube or Rent High Quality Preamp?

Hi all so I have a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier that I got used off of craigslist and I haven't yet swapped out the tubes. I think that they're between 2-3 years old (they are groove tubes if it matters). I'm going to be recording a new record soon and I'm wondering if it would be better to do a full retube or spend my money on a renting a high quality preamp such as an Avalon 737.

Where can I rent gear in Michigan?

Im lookin to get a new micpre.Instead of askin which one I should get I want to hear them fer myself but I cant afford to buy them and return them.It would be great if I could rent different ones for a day or a few days and try them out on my own recordings before I spend my moneys.Anywhere in the Ann Arbor/Detroit area would be close enough fer me.THANKS RODNEY
