I got my Wedge second hand for $150.  Awesome price for the amount of
control you have over the reverbs.

I'm considering the Wedge, along with some other
reverbs to complement my Lexicon Vortex. I'm looking
locally at an MPX-100 (Lexicon). Any
thoughts/suggestions for reverbs $250 and under?
Thanks,

Philip
