Metronome Recomendations?

[buzebus]

Just a quick question in passing,
We have a Seiko Prof 442 metronome,
and it's an ornery cuss of a thing, lightweight
and falls off the music stand, the jack falls out
from time to time, and the pressure sensitive keys
have a mind of their own.
Before we go shopping, any recomendations
for something a little more substantial perhaps?
Thanks fellas.

I would recommend getting Dr. Beat from Boss...

I am still using my FIRST Dr. Beat Metronome - it is a 10 - 12 year old model, and it works PERFECTLY (never broke and NEVER had no parts falling off of it) and trust me I have dropped it LOTS of times and I am using it almost daily for over 10 years now ...

Yo Buzebus, so how'd did ya make out with your metronome search?

I know Australia is a big place.....but, when I was in Sydney I thought the guys at Drum City were pretty helpful/knowledgeable/friendly
 

I've always been uncomportable with a click, unless it was the voice count from Roland (like it was shouting the time at me) 1,2,3,4.....

anyone have any tricks or suggestions in this area.....other preferred metronomes,etc...
