« on: February 19, 2014, 12:20:08 PM »
Anyone ever run these? They're certainly small enough but how do they sound? I couldn't find any samples on archive.org.



Frequency range: 20 to 20,000 Hz
Sensitivity: 10 mV/Pa (-40 dBV)
Max. SPL: 118/126 dB (for 1%/3% THD)
Equivalent noise level: 34 dB-A
Signal/noise ratio (A-weighted): 60 dB
Impedance: 200 ohms
Recommended load impedance: 1000 ohms
Supply voltage: 9 to 52 V phantom

I agree.. Would love to hear some input form someone who has used these for audio recording. I like trying mics and things that aren't "of the norm".

I have no experience with them at all.  Looking at the specs, though, they are quite a bit noisier and have worse SPL handling than some of the small omnis popular here (4060/4061, B3, MCE400)...
