Now would be a good time to order.  I think Jerry still works for a school, so he has a lot more time in the summer to work on the pre-amps.

Really loving how the DPA 4023>Aerco>MTII is sounding. Compact and easy to set up.

I know where you're coming from, I just purchased another pre and I need to wait until my wife lets me spend again...

Just withhold sex until she says 'uncle'.  No wait...that's what they do to us, not vice versa.  DAMMIT!

Digging my unit. Still figuring out how to power it and such. Ran out of batteries the other night at a long gig. Discovered that the same cable I use for my R44 works with this unit too. Gotta go buy a new Rat Shack cable.

Just pick up one or two DVD batteries (commonly called Wally World's around here) or a Techeon and you're set for mega hours.  The higher capacity Techeon (I think $89) would probably power the Aerco for a couple of days...seriously.

I ran the Aerco w/ the Tekkeon running at 12v.  No problems what-so-ever.  Only dropped 2 bars after recording 10 hours of music at a festie.  Enough juice left to go the next day for another 10 hours. 

[manitouman]

What Tekkeon? I've been using the wally world batteries and they power pretty good. Never did a long recording to see how long I can go on it.

I have a Tekkeon MP3400.  Grabbed from eBay.  They are not cheap as a Wally bat.  Run ya about $100.00.  Worth it for me, for my Nak 1K's get prickly when the voltage drops below 9V.

he could prob get away with a 9v dvd battery though don't you think?
the 9v dvd is well tested with a ua5 and akg
