Which would you rather own?

I'm trying to decide on a new pedal :bassist:
Which would you rather have?

Death by Audio Apocalypse

Just the insanity of this seems cool.

Dwarfcraft Devices Eau Claire Thunder

This seems to do a lot and all of it way over the top and crazy which i'm thinking will be fun.

Earthquaker Devices HoofReaper

This one seems versatile I'm defintley thinking the octave up switch might be cool on bass.

or the obligatory CARROTS!!!

Other than the vids on Youtube, which are great, i haven't heard to much opinion on what people think about these pedals.

It's kind of scary spending that much money on a pedal I'll probably never get to play unless I buy it. So any input on any or all of these would be greatly appreciated :hyper:
 
ECT was awesome when I played a friends

It's just a big enclosure, and one maybe two switches you'll never use

And I think it's basically a muff but on steroids

Maybe check out a grey stache

Apocalypse loos cool too

The hoof reaper is two variations of the same kind of circuit if I'm not mistaken
 
I have an Eau Claire Thunder, and love it. It is simply hugetastic. So many amazing sounds to be had.

If you don't want the huge enclosure and multiple footswitches, Dwarfcraft makes a smaller version called the Baby Thundaa - [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

In the beginning i was leaning toward.the apocalypse but the more research i do on the thunder i hear its great for bass. and all those dang knobs and switches look like a blast
