If anyone wants to lend us another MP-2/mixpre/fp-24 and jb3 we can test more mics in this comparison
I have some phantomed AT933's we could test.
Yeah, that would be pretty awesome. Run ho's, 184's and 393's simultaneously into 3 mp-2/fp-24/mixpre rigs....
I might be able to get my hands on a jb3 for that.
My vote is a comparison between: 184's, 393's (or better yet, 391's), and AT853 (or AT933 with 853C caps), or SP C4 (cards). Those are the most popular types and I have not seen much comparison, in particular between AKG300's and CP C4's.
