Yes, I post too much. 
Mostly I'm trying to save people money however.

The mic mount or boundary mic attach to the foam lock tight, it won;t move, when traveling with the kick.I've always been curious about this. Does the foam grip the mic-mount rail firmly enough to hold it in place during transport? And then the velcro holding the foam is enough to hold it all in place?
The system reminds me of what I did in the early 90's stacking studio foam cut to the depth of my drum and then placing a small, round weighted table top mic stand on the foam. It worked well until I had to move it.
I ended up switching to the May internal system, and kept the foam in place.
Yeah, those custom molded IEM's are a sure money saver alright.![]()
No need to be snidey. You're talking to someone with permanent tinnitus and hearing loss from hundreds of rock shows before IEM's were invented and when hearing protection was never even thought of. Custom moulds don't save money they save your ears, which are a lifetime deal, you aren't going to replace them.

That should function similarly to Simon Phillips' method of rolling a towel and taping it to the head at the edge, which sounds phenomenal, BTW. I've not tried this Remo product, but I think it shows promise.It's not a pillow but does this work?
