I've always heard good things about the ME50 and it sounds like you are in agreement. The ME70 is being offered as "preorder" at all the web stores and at the moment it is only $4 more ($299).

You are probably right that the ME50 price will drop (or the ME70 will increase). Outside of four foot swithes (me70) versus three (ME50), I haven't looked to see what the differences are.

I am selling my RP350 and some other things in order to purchase the ME50 and a Blackheart, so your review was very timely. Now, if I can get a timely buyer I will be all set.

Good review.
