Comments about Porta Brace AR-PMD661 Audio Recorder Case:
If you are recording in field conditions where you can't or don't want to access inputs/outputs, this Porta Brace case is great. If you want to be able to futz around with inputs/outputs, and if you anticipate the need to change batteries on a regular basis, this is not a good case

Comments about Porta Brace AR-PMD661 Audio Recorder Case:
I've heard good things about Port-a-Brace cases, so assumed this one would just work.
The fit is maybe a bit too snug. Inserting and removing the 661 is not easy. The side openings do not allow for convenient access to the SD card without partially removing the recorder. the supplied strap is way overkill for a light recording unit such as the 661. The wide, stiff shoulder pad is annoying. (I've replaces the strap with something more suitable.)
And, while the Velcro closures are secure, the can get in the way, too.
I'll recommend this for the protection, but not for the ease of use.
Pros
- Compact
- Easy To Carry

Comments about Porta Brace AR-PMD661 Audio Recorder Case:
This case is almost too well made. The velcro fasteners are so sticky it's like pulling a tooth to get one open which is fine to lock tight but a problem if you're trying to run and gun. Overall tho I am happy with the product and it fits the recorder well.

Comments about Porta Brace AR-PMD661 Audio Recorder Case:
I got this after reading reviews of how the Marantz is easy to get banged up during heavy usage.
This is Quality Made. And hand-made in the USA. (Had the makers name handwritten inside - shows you how personally made these are.)
The Design is logical and convenient and takes a few minutes to get familiar with but after that, it fuses well with the Marantz's functionality.
