Idle doesn't mean shit really.

Smash it with 100% load for 2 hours and see how it handles it.

seriously, dont. Ive listened to the 360.. it's pretty bad in comparison to the AD900's. All-in-one solution will cost you an extra $10 for mic and $0.80c for cable ties. Both the AD900 and Zalman mic have a 3m cable so you can just place cable ties along the length of the cable. I have mine every 20-30cm.

What is your opinion on the CoolIT Vantage? Ive been looking at it for a little while, still on air.

My setup.
