Q: 7. Hi, would this be suitable for a Sound Devices 633 (in CS-633 bag), a few G4 receivers and in future possibly the 633 expander by Marenius or Kortwich? Struggling to decide between this and the Portabrace AH-2M.

A: Both of the harnesses are suitable for use with the Sound Devices 633 in a CS-633 bag, but the AH-2.5 offers more support for the back and spine, and seems to have more padding as well compared to the AH-2M. I think the AH-2.5 is the better option for both support and comfort, especially if you'll be carrying the gear all day, which can weigh about 6 lbs.
