    Hulu with live TV is raising their price $10, up to $64.99 on December 18th, apparently in response to Youtube TV and fuboTV raising their prices.

    If two services are raising their prices and you raise the price of your similar service to match them.... doesn't that sound a bit counter-intuitive? Maybe a little collusive? I mean, if you're competing against two other services, wouldn't you want your price to be lower than your competitors without sacrificing quality to bring in more customers to your service? Entice customers away from your competitors? That's how a free market is supposed to work.

    It's just like they claim there's no such thing as price fixing in the sale of gasoline, yet no matter where you go on a section of any city, every single station is selling the gas for the same exact price. And if one station raises or lowers the price, they all do.

    Looks like some kind of SMD to me. I don't recognize the numbers though.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_relay

    Its the relay switch that changes the pattern for my Neumann u47 replica that I built. I was a jackass and didnt absolutely double check everything and didnt notice that the input jack at the bottom of the mic was different than in the directions they sent me, and I accidentally sent power down the pattern switching line and fried some components in there. I ordered replacement stuff a whiiiile ago but couldnt find the relay, this past weekend I decided to take another stab at it and desoldered most of what I've got to replace and then remember ah shit, that's where I left off with this....so I finally got around to digging and after about the 8th permutation of search text, I saw an image of the part come up in the images section and luckily as hell, it contained all the specs on the part. The shit that mic n mod sent me was so generically described, I really didnt know wtf I was looking for, at first

    One other cap was missing and I'm a bit irked that I had to order 10 of them for 40 bucks just so I can have one, and I'll never ever ever use the other 9 And I had been planning on ordering some vintage tubes for it also, so I picked up a pair of Tung Sol 6028s for it. It'll be nice to make use of that $750 instead of it just sitting there, lol...a real one and you're pretty much spending at least 4 thousand bucks.

    ....and some people thought it was weird when Jake didnt have a problem with Elwood having traded the old blues mobile for a mic

    I guess it's a good thing you're building a replica. I just looked at the prices of a real one and hole lee sheee it.

    Hitler originally commissioned the building of the Neumann U series It was a fun build! Very delicate and I had to put the low wattage tip on the soldering iron, mic has a big canister with a transformer, the pair of tubes, bunch of diodes, resistors, caps. The diaphragm is so insanely sensitive, you cannot touch or hold the microphone at all when its powered on.


    >real one
    a real modern one is like $4k.....but an original....you're lookin at 15-20, maybe even 25k or more

    it was watching videos about these mics where I came across the guy who was able to pick out the 100% silver audio cabling...lookin but I cant find it
