I still maintain that the MXR is one of the most impressive bang-for-the-buck boxes that I've encountered in quite some time. To my knowledge, 600ms of true bucket brigade chip analog delay within this size box is an unprecedented format, not to mention the price point. And it definitely sounds cool, vibey, and all that good stuff. For these reasons, I'll be hanging on to mine for while. Can a hardcore analog delay freak *do better*? Sure, but not at this price point, and not within this footprint size.

My experiences exactly. Big +1. Excellent review.
