Ok, I ran these for King Hippo at the Five at Five Points show in Columbia, SC on 5Apr2007. Ok at times but I think the mic pad is a must... at least for this setup running the omnis.
Check it out
here. I did run a low pass filter on Audacity post. The PA was muddy at best but I think the Avantones did fair here. Would really like to hit it with a better house sound. I was about 40 feet back from the stage which is nothing more than a corner of the street.
Check out how the CK-1's handle the 3 Harleys cranking up to the rear left of the setup in track 2.
These definitely are more sensitive than my AT853s with the same Beachtek DXA-10 preamp. I am taking these to the Wanee next week and plan to run the cards at the Mushroom and hopefully split omnis WITH THE PAD and Bass rolloff activated for the Peach stage.
