Bags for gear: UDG is king
UDG has been around long enough to know how to make great bags for gear - back in 2000 they started making Ultimate DJ Gear, soft cases to protect your valuable gig tools. Of course, DJ has changed plenty since then with a laptop becoming almost essential, plus a load of controllers - and still the standard fare of decks, plus vinyl and CD.
Fast forward to today, and the UDG range has grown to provide a vast range of bags, cases and cd wallets to suit every committed DJ. Our favourite case though, is a little one and NOT related strictly to DJs. In fact, we cant think of a single person who wouldn't love the headphone case. It's good for live sound engineers, travelling studio engineers, even public transport users who want to protect their nice cans instead of just throwing them in the backpack at the end of another harrowing journey.
Whatever you're into, make sure you check out the range. And just because we're feeling the love this Christmas season, there are a few tasty specials on that list. You'll notice them in red. It means they'll go faster - so make sure you're quick, as the prices may not be quite as sweet when we need to restock.
If you haven't actually checked out the bags 'in the flesh' then make sure you drop in and check them out. We're impressed at the build quality, and they are definitely made to go the distance. Don't just take our word for it though, UDG has lots of fans around the globe:
Carl Cox: 'UDG bags are the best recordbags I have ever used'
Tiesto: 'These bags are perfect for the traveling DJ!'
Erick Morillo: 'After all my years of traveling as a DJ, the UDG bags are the most practical and sturdy bags I ever used. I have never got any problems'

Fostex T20RP-MkII Headphones - JUST RIGHT pricing!
What about this for a serious deal - our old favourite studio headphones Fostex T20RP-MkII, just in time for the holiday season. Forget that they have a Recommended Retail Price of $229 in Australia, we've got a strong dollar and all the news outlets are suggesting the time to purchase overseas is now.
Well forget that, as we've always promised at Factory Sound, we're sticking our prices in a place they love: below the cost that 'normal' shops are paying. Don't ask how, just let it be known that Factory Sound is NO 'normal' shop, that we have always been committed to fair pricing for all pro audio, all the time. Whether you're a professional, student, enthusiatst, or ('tis the season, after all) buying a gift for a loved on, we buy in BULK and make sure the savings get passed straight to you.
So after all that, how much for a pair of Fostex T20RP-MkII? Half price? No, let's break below the $100 barrier. In fact, we've got so many in stock that let's call it $92. No mucking around, $92. There, we've said it.
We don't expect them to last very long at this price, so if you're keen...you'd better get busier than Warney or you'll miss the cheese.

Seems like the giveaways don't stop? Straight up! We've got 22 weeks worth of these prizes (that's 20 weeks left). The important thing is you don't need to know a thing about AFL footy to win - we asked last week's winner (codenamed: ericx), who scored a free PreSonus FireStudio Mobile (RRP $529), how he managed to tip better than the rest of the comp. The answer: "I know nothing about AFL, it was a fluke"
Perfect. And a great reason to get on board if you've not yet done so. Our cutoff is the end of Round 4, and this weekend is Round 3 so if you've not jumped on the Factory Sound Footy Tipping $2010 Express, then the whistle has just about blown. This week's prize is a pair of Sennheiser HD380PRO monitoring headphones. You may remember them from such videos as "Sennheiser Stakeout"...
