true and this is a good solution but I still prefer the cables coming  
off the side of a recorder though but that's just my personal preference

yes I've been eyeing the Porta-Brace audio sling
http://www.portabrace.com/productA-SS-A1B
but have already spent my budget on wind protection for my pair of  
3032's instead

this is what I've done for my ART Phantom power box
I bought a discontinued Case Logic CD player bag which has a 3.5mm  
jack on the outside for headphones
but I still haven't found a bag that works perfectly in the field  
with my 3032's
I'm using my Yak-Pak day bag for my traveling rig (LS-10 recorder +  
AT822 stereo mic + MDR-7506 hps) not ideal but it works
