Steve did you find a UK supplier for your Aspen mics? I'd like to avoid the import duty and extortionate post office charge if possible

They have them as 'unavailable' on Amazon

Cheers

Hi Steve

Just for interest I have two Azden setups and the 503 lav's gave me a load of uphill over the years ...maybe the cable and/or the jack plug goes faulty but they were not nearly as good I found as other lavs especially when it comes to durability !! All 3 of mine tended to go bad after a couple of months and being sealed the capsule is non repairable but I felt the main issue was the jack plug as it tended to be very noisy when you wiggled it around.

Pete? you can also get 503's on eBay if you want them ...Azden mics are made in Japan and you can get the genuine mic pre-packed form Hong Kong for $19.95 !!!

Hmm thanks Chris - I might avoid them and go for the Asden - I'll just suck up the import charge and tax

Mm OK for me Chris but as i say fro some reason the me-15s work great with the Olympus dm 670 recorders so i am pleased with the sound of the me-15s.
