Item(s) you NEVER regretted purchasing
« on: January 09, 2007, 02:33:57 PM »

OK this is a direct ripoff of the golden lemon thread that has prooved so popular. What item(s) large or small has given you the most satisfaction in terms of bang for buck or any other warm fuzzies criteria that you might care to apply.
(For me it's gotta be LabSubs - they had the kind of "Holy **** Batman, these things really do work" factor that made me immediately forget the money, pain and sawdust involved in their creation)

Nexo Geo S
Neumann KMS105
Lighting Rig

[Edit 2 -
Anything Ramtech
Anything R&R (I love my ESP cases especially)
Sennheiser e609 blackface(agreeing)
01v96 rack - I have used that more in the last year than anything
Aviom system

My father taught me to think through everything before buying it.  I don't think I always have but as of more recent I have really done all that I could to make sure that each item is needed for more than just immediate gratification.

Edit 2 done]

[Edit - Actually the funny thing is with the other thread I couldn't think of one thing that I regretted buying.  The things above are the items that I love the most and that keep me happy]

My Allen & Heath Mixwizard has paid for itself so many times over, it practically mints money. Fantastic piece of equipment at an easy to swallow price.

I have also never regretted buying any of the DriveRack DSPs... I rarely use them as generic crossovers anymore, but instead as multifunction problem solving units, worth every penny to have so much power in so small a space, especially on tour!

Well... It would be may Driveracks, except I really should have gotten another 48x rather then the 442, or my 01v/96 v2, except for the one time it didn't boot up right, or my Audix mics, except for the riders that have made me rebuy Shures.  After using one a couple of weeks ago, I know I wouldn't regret buying a KMS104, if I could justify the price.  That pretty much leaves the Valley People 4 channel gate, great unit that I got at a great price, don't regret buying it for a second, even though I don't use it now that I have the 01v.  Confused
