I like "steely confidence", goes hand in hand with the metallic sound.  ;) Seriously, I love the top end. It is spectacular. Just don't like the sound otherwise. I am not forming an opinion from one show, but I sucked up every ounce of Mule hf distortion last week, which isn't the fault of the v3 but the 4022>v3 combo. A little warmth in the chain is critical. I would *kill* for a fully adjustable a/d only that isn't a sony. How 'bout a v4, Mike, ansr only?!  ;D

how do you know another box would have been so different?  gotta run it a few times :)

maybe it was just the room and not the rig...

decent room, but there was definitely a lot of hf distortion to my ears, which seems to happen a lot for the Mule. Scott, I've loved every show I've taped until this one, the high end is spectacular. The two del/los shows I taped are just stunning in their high end detail. Trying not to make a rash decision. Plenty more shows in November and December. I do miss that warm blanket that transformers bring, and that the transformers can mask that hf distortion a bit, but I also know that will cut into the high end of the 4022's, which is really their calling card.

Boswell, no need to be a smartass. The show was at the Pantages in Minny, which for a vaudeville theatre sounds surprisingly good. They stuck everyone on the floor in the LAST row though. I weaseled up to the balcony and clamped onto the balcony dfc about 35' from stage after being told not to. Same venue I got the heave-ho from at MMW in April. Same security too. Unfortunately, I think there were some PA issues, up front on the floor and actually further back in the balcony had less HF issues than where I was, which I realized way too late to do a thing about it. What I'm sayin' is that after taping maybe 20 Mule shows, and dealing with similar HF issues most every time, transformers can mask hf distortion to some degree. We can all agree the V3 doesn't mask anything. So no, I don't think there was user error.

I have no problem with their designs whatsoever.  I have never flipped anything by mistajke, and running upright is fine as well.  


Daryan-
I'm talking about the little metal toggle switches for the Hi-Pass/Phantom/Phase shift. There aren't any of those on the Minime.

I stand corrected!
I guess I should carefully look at pictures before I run my mouth! :P

Its the mics that are pulling that sound, not the V3, its seems that the same comon denominator here is the mics. No matter what gear you use behind it you aren't happy, so try using different mics, that is the only way to truely change your sound.

If it was just the mics that pull the sound, everyone would run just phantom, and Doug wouldn't have built his m148 to accentuate the low end, or as he says, and I paraphrase, "nothing like it to bring out the Phil bombs". I loved my 4022>eaa>adk, never once a bitch about the sound, just trouble with the units themselves. A $200 trip to France for the eaa, sketchy battery cage, and we all know about the adk. My mistake to give it up to try something new. Liked mbho 603/200>mp2>adk better too. Gonna try to come up with an m148 and run 4022>m148>hhb for awhile, hell for $3,600 new or whatever it was, the hhb a/d ought to be good. Glad I can entertain you all.  8)

Marc-
That is a great idea.  I have been wanting to hear some 4022's with a 148!

Chris Pennington run 483>hhb at every Drive-by Truckers show and his tapes would really surprise you...  The pdr1000 is by no means a slouch.

Why not 4022->m148->mme.  I bet it would smoke!
