If you choose to believe that it's certainly your right.

The capsules in those expensive Heil mic packages cost well 
under a buck. The amplified headphones have RFI problems. 
I've experienced that first hand at N6RO, and heard 
complaints from others.

If you read my earlier post to Jerry, you will notice that I 
am NOT playing the degree game. MANY good people working in 
pro audio lack an EE degree. I've judged him on what I see 
and hear from him and his company. I stated that neither he 
nor his company is either well known or respected in the pro 
audio world. He claims to be a major player in pro mics. The 
first time I saw a Heil booth at any audio trade show was a 
year ago. I've never seen him or his company at AES Standards 
Committee meetings.
