Sam Ash Giveaway!!!!!!!

[MISTERQCUE]

2-day at lunch I walked over to Sam Ash and
proceeded to buy:
Behringer MultiCom Composer Pro
Behringer UltraBass Pro
Behringer AutoCom Pro.
I got all this for $156.49! Sam Ash cancelled it's
sale contract with Behringer an is d@mn near giving
this stuff away. Mind you,none of this stuff is used!
right out of the box. So if your'e looking for low priced
efx check it out now b-4 they sell out.

HOLY SH*T!!! Those prices are even better than in the email I got from them this morning!!

[england]

Too bad such great prices did not get extended to their online store! Oh Well...

[DaveO]

What a drag. I stopped by the Sam Ash near me on my way home from work and they didn't have a *single* piece of Behringer gear in the store. I'll have to think about ordering online. Those prices still looked pretty good.

[MISTERQCUE]

Contact the Sam Ash in NYC (48st bet 6th and 7th)
They have Virtualizers for $69.00,Feedback Destroyers,$49.00
various Compressors from $65 to $99.00 straight out of the box.
E-mail me if the location nearest you is out of stock and
maybe something can be worked out!

[england]

Maybe you could get me their phone number, or better yet, their e-mail address if they have one. I did try to place an order to the Sam Ash I get online and received an e-mail back today that their out of the stuff I ordered. Thanks.

[MISTERQCUE]

The phone# is 212-719-2299 ask for Jubal Harper.He even was cool e-nuff to check stock for additional Behringer products
not listed on the e-mail Sam Ash sent out.

[DaveO]

Thanks for the info. I'll try calling tomorrow - well, I guess it would really be later this morning .

[england]

Thanks for the tip! I called Jubal this morning and ordered a Virtualizer Pro for $95 and Autocom Pro for $85. Jubal says their best deals are on the Behringer mixers, for example, a $600 mixer is going for $250. Thanks again!

[DaveO]

I just got off the phone with Jubal and repeated england's deal - AutoComm Pro for $85 and the Virtualizer Pro for $95. I should have it on Tuesday. I really wanted the Composer Pro but they already sold out, but for $85 I thought I'd give the AutoComm a try.

Thanks for the tip MISTERQCUE! Now I wait to find out how much trouble I'm in for buying more toys.

[skippy]

Oh, yeah. Many thanks, Misterqcue, for that most useful pointer! I called up Jubal and ordered a pair of the Virtualizer Pros (yes, I do have need for two separate ones) at $95 a pop- no sales tax and $7 for shipping out of New York. That's a _major_ woo-hoo, there, sir.

Earlier in the week, I'd called up Musician's Friend on these, and they had 84 backorders at the warehose and no due date- and at $149 to boot. This is one screamin' deal, no doubt about it.

*Great* forum, great pointer. Think I may just have to hang around these parts a little bit!

[Wide Awake]

Too bad the Virtualizer is a piece of junk....even for $100. I have one and I will sell it for $40 plus shipping. The Fostex DE1 is $135...thats a better box IMHO. I do like the Behringer Active direct box-Ultra DI...a great tool...$53 dollars at American Musical Supply. Their 48 Point patchbay looks like a steal at $47. I am guessing the exchange rate has something to do with their products being so low....or their competitors charging too much for their products. Hmmmmm.

[MISTERQCUE]

I would like to thank all those who contacted
Jubal @ Sam Ash and made their Behringer purchases.
I walked into Sam Ash again 2-day and showed Jubal this
particular thread and rec'd a FREE Behringer Patch-Bay!
He told me he was bombarded with calls this past Saturday
for all kinds of orders.
As I just work 3min walking distance from Sam Ash I'll let you good people know if there are anymore SAM ASH GIVEAWAYS!
Peace 2-fingers

[DaveO]

Hey, a patch bay!! What was he selling patchbays for?!?!??

Actually, I've bought enough gear in the last few weeks that a patch bay, not to mention a rack, may be my next purchases. Jeez, my wife is gonna $@&!ing kill me soon!

[MISTERQCUE]

Believe me folks I'm no shill for Sam Ash,but this Saturday
(Aug 11th) Sammmy's havin' a 1 day sale on recording equip.,gits and basses,efx units etc.

If N-E 1's interested I'll check it out Sat morning and post
their best deals here and then we can all jump on Jubal Harper's ph# and order more toys.
Peace.

[england]

Well I'm interested! I'm particularly interested in a Shure SM81 condenser mic and Event monitors. If they carry those, check 'em out. Thanks.
P.S. Congratulations on your patch bay. You deserve it!!!

[england]

Anyone got their 'goodies' from Sam Ash yet?? I'm still waiting.............and waiting.............and waiting..............and.....

[england]

Well I'll be....10 minutes after my last post Mr. UPS appeared. Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Prism]

Hey Wide Awake! I'll take that Virtualizer off your hands for 40 bucks. Email me at isaiah@ieyre.com

Yup. That would be me, if nobody else. Got them today, used them for tracking some a capella vocal stuph direct to 24/96 2-track on the the Masterlink this very evening. Of course, it helped that I had the pinouts in advance, and already had the leads soldered into the patchbays in anticipation: slam it, set the trims, and punch go. Amazing: I still remember how, and my solderer's permit appears to still be valid.

Client was surprised, and very, very happy. Count me as a happy camper as well. Now, if my frakkin' D1624 would just come off backorder... (;-)

This feels *good*. Damn! It's been 15 years since the last time I burned tape (or bits) in anger, but it feels _good_. Hey, it's a new millenium (or it will be in a few more months, if you're a purist). Time for us grey old bastards to do some damage! IMNSHO, of course...
