I was just looking at the present totals. The ACM-1 and 4 seem to have little interest. I am considering dropping these. I am considering this because these are not anything special and can be purchased under other brand names at a resonable cost. In addition the manufacturer frowns, and might decline making 5 or 6 mics of one style. Any thoughts?

Aren't those the two mics that had no price posted? If so, that could explain the lack of interest to a large degree. But since time is getting short, you should probably do what you think is best on that, so drop 'em if you want (but not too hard or you'll damage the ribbons).
 
Drop them. The ACM-1 is available under countless brands (good mic though) and there is a newer double ribbon mic available to take the place of the ACM-4.

In fact, have you (Chance) considered offering the participants the option of dropping one of the mic preamp designs so that we'd have two designs that pushed over 100 orders, giving everyone the better deal? I wouldn't mind switching my preamp choice if it meant knowing that it would cost me half as much.
 
You are right about the new dual ribbon mic and the ACM-1 About the mic pres, I am hoping to meet the quotas for all 3. I am getting daily interest E-mails on all of them and am hoping to recoup the expense of the design.

Nice thought, but they will only be $25 a piece cheaper, not "half as much."

YES, those are current numbers... The counts are taken directly from the database on a real-time basis...

Also, I have just added more information to that page as well... The page now shows how many people have registered and how many people have registered, but have not chosen any products yet... That number is pretty high too... Right now, about 19% of the total amount of people registered...

I just noticed the changes. I see paypal fees have been added, but now there is no "Grand Total" to shock me back to reality. :)

But not at such a nice price!:(

Though I understand if they don't want to make just six of them. Would really like a pair personally though

Gareth,
You know 37point5 has some acm-1s that he is selling in the "free ads for music/equipment" section listed under "group buy mics" . Good guy to deal with.

And is that a 2 micron ribbon? The other manufacturers... err... rebadgers use 6 on most of the ribbon mic models, which is why I ask. Not that I care; I already have two of that model with the 6 micron ribbon from another rebadger, heavily modded.

Yeah, I was considering an ACM-4, but didn't add it since I wasn't sure about the price.

But for the sake of raising the numbers, I just did.
 
Was a color ever concluded for the preamps?

Also, is there confirmation of whether or not the 73 will be less $25 if it goes over 200 units even if the other pres don't reach 100 units?

I'll add my order for ACM-4s today too. I hope it is near the same price as last time.

Just a reminder the ACM-4 was the one that didn't exhibit the sag issues...
