Has anyone here bought a capsule from Braingasm Labs?

don't forget OPR. his dedication to constant improvement is amazing. every single experience my clients have had with him and story i've seen about him has been immensely respectful, open to suggestion and collaborative. he is the person i always regret taking business from the most, by far. mark is the chillest dude around. there's no better place to go if your interest is in actually supporting the art. i heard his k47 for the first time a few years ago and wasn't a fan, but then i heard one a few months ago and it was great. he's been refining with help from friends in the industry this whole time. his current production k47 is actually slightly better than my last batch (and even that's when my plates are on target, which was an issue before we went in-house on those), and i'm sure his m7 is great

Agreed OPR is great I bought a 87 U-Mod from Him (I don't believe he does this model anymore) it was his mid range model at the time and even though sent from Australia to the uk for what it cost me it is an amazing mic for the price. It beat out a lot of other mic's between the £500 to £1000 mark and believe it cost me around £500. this was the mic that taught me to go further modding and buying better quality than your standard mic's on the market.I did not know he done a K47 until the last few days .... my brother has his C12 ready for a build. I will also say that when I contacted him he was really helpful with an issue I had with the mic which is sometimes really rare these days and talked me through fixing after I messed up... This U-mod has had a couple of capsules in since the original one of which made it very slightly better with the first one, it was close but left that one in for a while. Then I upgraded to the Arienne Audio K87 which now I will leave in and never sell, as I know for one I will miss it and another it will not get me back a decent amount of money for the sound it gives me... so it's a keeper .... Due to the believers attitude of many buyers around mass produced mic's. I now always question the quality of Studio gear no matter what the badge and often find a really good alternative better or on par with the norm. Hence some of my gear includes stuff from OPR, Arienne Audio, Analogue addicts, Phoenix audio, AEA mics and preamps, Tegeler, Looptrotter, Elysia, Stam, Buzz Audio, Bereich03, Maag and AML. Blackspade, Audix, Beyer, Studio939, Furch, RSE and Vyse Amps. I try to eek out a lot for my money And have been happy to pay for gear from all the above and will never sell anything that I currently have from any of the these.
