New Compressor - whats best Boz or McDSP?

OK question for you guys who have played with either of these compressor "bundles"   - I have a coupon to spend - what would be best to get do you think - the McDSP 6030 ULTIMATE COMPRESSOR Bundle or the Boz Manic Compressor??
 
Any views welcome!
Cheers
Nigel

I can't say, but when I opened an account with Boz last month I had something like a 30 day period to purchase at half price. This was while the sale was on. And the 50% applied to the sale price, so I got it for a quarter of the price. I posted and another poster tried and picked up more than the Manic and something else. So the offer applied to more than one thing. When I then rechecked, I was no longer illegible for the offer. So it seems a one time, but more than one item applied policy.

The Boz Manic Compressor is AWESOME!  Especially on the Drum Bus...

Slap it on a mile wide smile will come across your face...

Tough choice...both are great.  But if you follow kamikaze's advice you can probably still get the Manic for $37.50
 
Hard to beat that deal.

If you could buy it for that I'd have already bought it...it's $74.50 at half price...and the sale is over

Imperial Delay   $74.00 USD1$74.00 USD
+10db Bundle   $99.00 USD1$99.00 USD
        Discount  -$86.50 USD
          Subtotal$86.50 USD

That was what I got when the sale was on and created a (new) user ID at Boz. I never had a user ID there becuase I got MC from pluginboutique.
 
Bapu is too legit to quit.

Thanks guys - my coupon is at JRR - they have the McDSP for 79 less discount less coupon, which is about $30 to me
The Boz Manic Compressor from them is full price, 149 less discount (I presume) less coupon, about 100 to me.
Think I might try the McDSP stuff and see how it goes - never used any of their stuff before so that will be a positive!!
Cheers

Yoropal, spot on my friend  - I've just loaded them up and been playing with them for a while  - exceptional - now I DEFINITELY never need to buy another compressor

Don t laught but i would suggest , according to price , mcdso channel g : you all the channel goodie , gate filters differnts type of eqs and compression : regular knees , channel , bus comp ( both ssl ) , neve , api ....

I m pretty surprise by the quality of this baby , do try it ...

I also went for the ultimate channel , those comps are exellent and light on cpu ...the froggie sound real close to ssl , the 76 is exellent , there a neve also .... good bang for the buck and exelent workflow ...simply try them àd see if it feets

For sale  (PM me) : transfert ilok included
Eventide Ultrachannel make offers
Softube Summit EQ
IK Neve 1081 , Neve precision Comp/Lim
EastWest Goshtwriter
Soundforge Pro 12
