Title: Good places for AKG 300 series caps?
Post by: Sanjay on October 25, 2004, 12:56:48 AM
Decided to switch back to team AKG today, going to be aquiring a pair of AKG 300's.  I would like to pick up a set of hypers maybe some omnis or 'guns, anyone have one they want to get rid of? Prob not.  But in any event could some people throw out some good places to get them?

thanks i'll look into it +T.  If i could find another shotgun used i'd pick up the one that is in the yard sale already instead of hypers, but if I am gonna buy new i'm gonna go with the hypers.  I wish these things hit ebay more often.


Edit: seems like their database is all screwy, but B&H photo has them at similar price so i may have to fall back on that if i can't find em used.

qft.  I just recently got a quote from them before I bought a used set of mics.  *Very* competitive pricing. Just be sure to mention ts.com.
