Topic: Best and Smallest power for Schoeps?

CCMs into a microtracker would be about the smallest Schoeps rig that could be done.  Obviously you lose the flexibility of the switchable caps, and use the Microtracker's nonstandard but supposedly functional phantom power.

been stealthing w/ the 722, cmc6/kc5/mk's....

wondering if the microtracker is stable enough, and how long it'll last when providing phantom. its a lot smaller than 722, and would be real easy to sneak in the MT/cables/mics

dood 2 shows does not constitute......been stealthing w/a 722

I've been reading through all the threads about Schoeps and powering options on here.  I'm looking to upgrade from DPA 4061's to some Schoeps.  So from what I understand about the Schoeps the most common caps are MK4's for taping shows.  But to power them I need 48v.  I only Stealth so I need a compact setup.  Looks like I'd be going MK4>KCY 250>?.  I'd defintely want to use the KCY 250 because of the small size.  So which pre/battery box is The absolute smallest one on the market to power these mics with the KCY 250 and no mic bodies? 
Is there a certain site that people go to for Schoeps mics?  Where's the best place to get them from?

if you have phantom power (like the 722), you can't get anything smaller than the schoeps vst62

Schoeps ccm4 > Sonosax SX-M2 > M1

or

ccm4 > EAA PSP2 > M1

Both of those would sound great and are super compact.

FYI ChrisK:  I just left the WCL where I saw MMW for a free lunchtime show....must have been off your radar.....elbro nerkte?  just sayin
