I was initially drawn to the ACM-3. Now I'm thinking ACM-4.
I'm interested in a pair for Acoustic Guitars, OHs and guitar cabs.
Which should I go for?
Thanks boys.
For those I'd have to say the ACM2. Out of the 2,3,4 I'm guessing (don't know cause I haven't used the 3/4) I'd reach for the 2 first.
The ACM-4 has this thick plastic which, though it doesn't ring, significantly changes the character of the sound.
All three of the powered ribbons look much more sane in this regard, though I won't be able to say for sure until I have them in my hands. My gut would be to go for the single ribbon designs if you're only buying one or a single pair---either the phantom powered single or the tube ribbon. If the electronics are reasonable, the tube ribbon would be my pick because it basically appears to be the ACM-2 with a larger body and active electronics... but again, until I actually touch one, it's anybody's guess.
No 900 for me.
I'd say the 2 would be similar to the 300. Same motors I'd guess, but the big IF on the 300 is the electronics. Personally, I'm in for a PAIR of the 2's - I KNOW what I'm getting there. I'll probably experiment and get 1 of the 300's as an experiment. Personally, I'm leaning towards NON-active ribbons. Hey, that's how all the classics were. If it ain't broke.....
