  1. Bought all 3 Wave Funk.  I think I may have bought these back when Rephlex did digitals(checked my old emails, but they don't show which releases I bought), but that was like a decade ago and now there's extra tracks so why not.  

  2. Regarding shipping, this is the most apples-to-apples comparison I could make.  I recently purchased the most recent EOD EP from Redeye, so I took my receipt and compared to shipping from Bleep:

    Redeye

    1 x EOD - Zone, A1. From the 1st Sound
    Shipping =  GBP 2.81 ($3.58)

    Bleep

    EOD - Zone Vinyl (EP)
    $7.41 Standard Mail (Not Tracked)
    $21.89 Courier (Tracked)

    I didn't want to pull up more examples to make a point on the internet, but I've found that Redeye has consistently cheaper shipping than Bleep, and my understanding is that they're both based in the UK.  I tried pulling up an analogous box set from Redeye, but couldn't find anything comparable to the Global Communication release.  I did buy the set, so obviously I don't have that much of an issue with it, and agree that tracked is probably a necessity for this kind of purchase, but I do think that Bleep is more expensive in general.

    Legitimately thought the synthesized "copyright protection" was part of the music until like the fourth track I sampled.

    100 percent did the same thing.  It's also really good regardless!

  4. Thanks!  I hadn't even considered the ports.  Now leaning towards the A7x, but the Neumanns seem interesting as well.  I just picked up a room correction mic, and my current plan is to use REW to get the most out of my current setup for the next month or so, but hopefully this will help me set up the new monitors as well.  

  5. So it's time to update my own Rokit setup.  It's between the A7x or the BM5a MKIIs I think.  I wonder if it's a situation where I should buy online, or is it worthwhile to find a place that has one or both of these to test.  I feel like I won't really know until I get them into the studio, but perhaps it's best to see what they sound like in a more optimal environment.
