woo imgetting all tingly inside...can't wait for an ETA! Thanks for all you have done Chance. As a 22 year old getting his feet wet in recording ,these sorts of things really help me build a mic collection. I was in the market for a stereo pair of condenseres and for just under 100 bucks including shockmounts I couldn't pass up the ACM 240's. Hopefully I will have some money to get a ribbon mic or tube mic or both.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe I ordered several extra of some of the mics. This is in case there are some that aren't up to snuff. On the last buy out of around 100 mics, there were 3 that had minor problems. I did this so if this happens again, I can ship another one from here and not from China. I am still waiting for a ship date. I will call China in a few hours from now.

Well if you have any extra ACM 6802-T's after that sign me up!

The user name is a relic that stuck and I just use it as my username on all the boards etc. that I frequent. It actually doesn't really have much to do with the car company. When I was creating an AIM name oh so many ages ago my uncle was at my house and he always called me Lexus becayse my name is aLEX and well I just made that my screen name.

After the mics are shipped and tested for quality, I'd be interested in some of the extras too if any will be made available for sale! :)
 
Mics are on the boat. Should be in the states soon...:D:D:D:D:D

Great pic.

Sorry to be a skeptic, but is there really an ETA of soon? I've never shipped to/from China, but I've done ocean shipments to South America and typically they take at least 3 weeks.

I'm not really an a hurry to get them, just trying to hold back the wolves that will be asking the status on an hourly basis once they get the idea that they are close.

Definitely good news though. Looking forward!
 
i'm pretty sure that chance said a couple pages back that it'd take 28 days to reach the port
 
And then, there's your mic....

I had this funny dream that I ordered a Chinese ribbon mic in a past life... how weird is that ;)
 
I took some melatonin last night that my wife just bought and dreamed I was tracking vocals with the 6802. I like nice dreams.:):)
 
Hey gang
I spoke with China last night. (I love Gizmo project) and they will ship soon. They had a flood and a lot of bad weather which closed them down for over a week. I did some research to see if they were just feeding me a line, but sure enough extreme weather thruout China. I should have a ship date very soon.
Reading my past corrospondense with them, they estimated to ship around the end of July and I think I posted "around the end of July" a while back. I don't want to start on the next buy until I have more info and do more testing. It takes a lot of time sending gear back and forth for them to build and me to test then for them to change/alter then back to me to test. We're almost there and will keep posting info as I get it.
 
Thanks for the hard work Chance :)

Any way to make this a sticky thread so we don't have to dig for it anymore?
 
Here is the first look of the ACM-310 SDC tube mic (with logo and model number)
