I'd buy one, but I don't think there are many users of this gear out there taping with it, so demand would be minimal

Has anyone tried to fit the AKG lemos into one of NOLAFishwater's bars? The Schoeps lemo's fit in them, I imagine they are the same size. I realize BJ's bars are a little different, just wanted to throw it out there......

the AKG lemos are slightly bigger than the schoeps - they don't fit in the KWON or Schoeps ORTF bar so I doubt they'd fit in the NOLA bars

Huh, I always thought there was just one size lemo connection. Oh well. At least it looks like y'all have a solid option here.  :)

the NOLA bars were offered around $75 a piece - there are def cheaper alternatives but for the quality and ease of use I think $150 is a steal

hmm, showing interest. But my actives are ck93 caps (Blue Lines / SE300 body), and don't think there's too many of us out there......
