Topic: UA-5 mod comparisons...

I run the 483's with a w-mod and with a bm2p+mod.  For the money you can't beat the busman mod.
Anyway, here are a few I taped with 483 > w-mod

John,
where's those samples you and I did with the 414s/483s >> BM2/wmod ??  Still have `em?
I really preferred your mics(480s) thru the BM2.  The low was just as present, yet it tighter and more well defined than the wmod, imo.   Of course that was only one small outdoor show we tried it at. 

Damn, too many factors to consider.

Yeah, I still have them somewhere, I'll dig them up.  Here are a few samples I recorded earlier today in my home office using 483's and mk4's with the w-mod and the bm2p+mod as well as an nbox (RCA in). Mics setup as DIN.
