EARTHQUAKER DEVICES PLUMES overdriveThe Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent". While this circuit has been the foundation of countless other overdrives available today, we feel the Plumes has a few twists and turns to make it unique enough to stand

The Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime-green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent". While this circuit has been the foundation of countless other overdrives available today, we feel the Plumes has a few twists and turns to make it unique enough to stand out. The Plumes does away with the trusted JRC4558 OpAmp and the BJT buffers and replaces them with low noise JFET OpAmps for a more robust and precise signal with a significantly lower noise floor. The 9v power input is internally converted to +/- 9v for more headroom and a clarity that is almost three-dimensional. We've raised the input impedance to a whopping 10 megaohms for a stronger signal with more clarity and chime. We've also adjusted the cutoff of the tone control to deliver a more useful range of travel with more booming bass on the low end without sacrificing the cutting midrange and bright top end. Last, but certainly not least, the Plumes offers three different clipping options to ensure that it will work with a wide variety of gear and playing styles. Mode 1 is symmetrical clipping utilizing a pair of light emitting diodes. This is the crunchiest setting the Plumes has to offer. When played through a clean amp, it'll deliver a reasonable facsimile of that classic crunchy valve amp tone. Mode 2 is clean boost mode. This eliminates the soft clipping diodes altogether and leaves you with straight OpAmp drive. This is perfect for pushing your clean tone out in front or driving the preamp of an already overdriven amp into tasteful breakup territory. Mode 3 is an asymmetrical silicon diode arrangement similar to the stock screamer but with more output and clean clarity, the tone some people describe as "transparent". The Plumes features EarthQuaker Devices relay-based "soft touch" Flexi-Switch™ Technology for both momentary and latching footswitch operation as well as a very low 25mA current draw. "¢ Unique approach to a classic tube-like overdrive circuit offering more headroom, lower noise and far better signal integrity. "¢ Features 3 different clipping options: symmetrical LED, asymmetrical silicon, and no diode OpAmp drive. "¢ Reimagined tone control to sculpt low end, clear top end, and focused midrange. "¢ True bypass. "¢ Silent relay-based switching. "¢ Features EarthQuaker Devices' proprietary Flexi-Switch™ Technology. "¢ All-analog signal path. "¢ Lifetime guarantee. "¢ Current Draw: 25 mA. "¢ Input impedance: 10 MΩ. "¢ Output impedance: 100 Ω. "¢ 100% hand-built in the USA."

Wow! If they make this for your car BUY IT!
Style: HCC2122-X
I was surprised to see a reusable cabin air filter listing for my car. I didn't know such a thing existed. And they're the same price as a name brand disposable. I hate sending things off to the landfill, so being able to wash and re-use this, even if it breaks down after a few washings, is still saving the landfill and my pocket book. Quality feels excellent. Fit is tight, but with a bit of persistence it squeezes in. Sure, I realize this won't have the same micron level as a disposable, but, I routinely open doors and windows, and these filters area about catching the big stuff for me - not the molecules I can't see and get blown in as I enter/exit anyway. Super quality piece, I wish there was a fitment available for all my cars. I'm definitely keeping my eye out!

Size fit, well made and washable!!!
Style: HCC1017-X
After buying filters for ever, I came across this product. Well, why not? Washable? I got two so I can use the other after washing one. The filter fit inside the holder, it was a bit tight but fit for my 2006 Toyota Highlander. It is definitely more dense than regular filters, very well made. I will be looking now for a washable engine filter too.

2 piece filters but perfect fit
Style: HCC2143-X
It's a 2 piece filter, which seems strange but...the 2 filters fit perfectly side by side. Both filters have a loop to help with removal for cleaning. Just installed and haven't driven or used a/c yet. Hopefully the filters breath well.
