What ever happened to...

Post by ai698 »

...Monsterweights? Who bought them and who's still using them? I was about to buy some when Mark stopped making them.

I still have them on my Miraphone, and if they are doing any harm, I can't tell it.

I haven't experienced anything that would change my view of them that I posted at the time. They definitely have an effect, and that effect may be favorable for some and unfavorable for others. For me, they were favorable. But they won't change your life.

What'rU, NUTZ? I don't actually do this stuff--that's for the technicians. I'm an engineer. Just build it the way I designed it, dammit.
