Izen Ears Posted December 2, 2011 Report Posted December 2, 2011 TMI, TMI. That's gross. Sweat & dander I understand but what's the "etc", dead dust mite droppings? Eric Actually dust mite excreta is so tiny it's not affected by gravity! Them dookies dangle 1 - 2 inches above your matress and swirl around when the air moves. My best purchases have been backups for everything... Holding off on the house but I could build 2 fully functional carts. My stress level is exponentially lower whenever something malfunctions now... Dan Izen Quote

Jon Ailetcher Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 I bought one of the 16 foot Fisher Booms that Warner Brothers were selling and then took it to Fisher for a complete rebuild. Quote

Philip Perkins Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 To be "on topic", MKH-816T for $90.00, and my gear insurance premium. I'm totally "on topic". The header said "best purchase" not "best sound equipment purchase". That UCLA thing is why there aren't so many of those around here these days...you whippersnappers will understand what I mean one day. phil p Quote
justanross Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Okay, I thought my joke was funny. Quote
RPSharman Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Okay, I thought my joke was funny. The topic didn't ask for our biggest expense in 2011. Quote

That UCLA thing is why there aren't so many of those around here these days...you whippersnappers will understand what I mean one day. phil p I wasn't trying to point you or anyone out ....but I did figure that the OP meant sound equipment, being that this is what we usually talk about here. No worries. Quote

Peter Deutscher Posted December 3, 2011 Report Posted December 3, 2011 Don't know if you consider it a purchase, but my donation to JW and this awesome forum. Wouldn't be where I am today without the advice/help/banter I've received from this forum. Thank you everyone on this site. Oh, and my first Schoeps purchase (thanks John B.) Quote

We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. Best Whatever this all means. Look forward to a time in your life where production sound equipment isn't the biggest financial factor you have going. And the next time you want to ridicule me spell my name right. And UCLA wasn't the biggest expense at all. There's this thing called a mortgage.... Philip Perkins Quote
atheisticmystic Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 Philip, My most humble apologies for spelling your name incorrectly. I was in no way trying to ridicule you however. If you didnt get the Python reference, please excuse my obscure tastes and comic anachronisms. Read my posts Phil, they may be geeky and odd, but they don't ridicule anyone here. That's not who I am. Best, Steven Quote
Marc Wielage Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 The Lav Bullet! I forgot about that! You know, it's kind of a silly little accessory, but damned if it isn't fast -- and appreciated by actresses. I used them on a restaurant the other day and had a lady compliment me, saying, "that's the fastest anybody's ever wired me up!" Important safety tip: keep the Lav Bullet in a warm pants pocket before slipping it down the front of ladies' cleavage. (They should add this to the directions.) --Marc W. Quote
JDirckze Posted December 4, 2011 Report Posted December 4, 2011 Cue new product: The Lav Warmer! Kinda like a beanie or tea cosy... My best purchase this year was this fine little lady: Quote
