I currently use either regular 4060's or regular 4061's, depending on the size and probable volume of the show.
I like the idea of the newer "core" version of the 4060's, as the extra headroom might allow me to just use the one pair of mics for all situations.
DPA stuff already sounds so clean to me, I can't imagine noticing the claimed lower THD of the newer "core" mics. But, has anybody done comparisons between older versions of this series and the Core versions? What did you notice, if anything?
Also, I typically have the mics poking through a thick, black, baseball cap. I simply poked holes with a needle, just forward of where my ears are. The holes are slowly widening, so the mics no longer stay put. How would you guys go about reinforcing that? Little bits of duck tape or similar, over the holes, then poke through the tape? All suggestions welcome.
