anyone use a microdrive with the 660?  I have a few of these laying around and they are listed on the Marantz site as compatible...

mine will be the first...If you like his work, I would contact him via PMs and ask him about mods to any pre-amp...some may need to go through Cascade Media however...I'm not sure of his commitments...

That's pretty cool. I wonder how it will compare sonically/financially to the oade ACM 660... *paging dcaley -- this might be something for you to consider after your stock 660 buffalo hip experience*

If you pull the trigger on the 660 do yourself a favor and invest in a Lexar Card.

B&H Photo/Lexar MIR purchases made between 3/18/07-04/30/07...8GB Lexar CF 133x $159.95 - $70 MIR = $89.95
          4GB Lexar CF 133x $89.95 - $30 MIR = $59.95

Just saw this thread. Very happy with this box; endless runtime on one charge, been using SanDisk 4GB cards with one failure.
here's a good example of what a wcm can do:

I've recently taped a couple shows with the 20db pad, record level on 10 and still peaking at -6/-4db and it sounds sooooo good.

I just bought a Basic Concert Mod 660 for my DPA 4021's.  Just reading the manual and getting a feel for it now.  I'll probably take it out for a low pressure local gig next week.

The unit it a bit bigger than I expected.  I'm wondering about the best way to get this unit into a stealth-only venue.  PM I guess would be best on this issue.
