I think thats it...I think Jon at JK Labs can also make a box/cables for the MBHO caps but dont quote me on that...
With regard to stealthing, I was thinking that most directional mics probably aren't behaving as intended anyways. Sticking them in your hat, collar or shirt has got to be affecting the way sound reaches the side vents (and then on to the back of the diaphragm). I couldn't tell you precisiely what the effect is...I would guess that they become less directional if you are restricting them in any way. Anyone?

You have solid obstacles just inches away from the mic: altered directional patterns, even for omnis. Occurance of multipath, comb filter effects etc etc However, putting numbers on the severity of these effects could prove challenging. But a good stereo, a set of 1/3 octave warble tones and some patience could give some ballpark answers....
