No info on the CA site...What about the CAFS for this kind of recording enviro? Re: breathing and eyeglass mount...yes, I've found that I have to refrain from the big "sighs" that I do when I hear some idiot drunkenly talking near me! It helps if you surround yourself with actual music fans who want to listen to music and not each others' gossip. Gotta love the dimwits who - when given the universal sign for be quiet (finger over pursed lips) - decide to come closer and ask you what you're saying...right into the mics...I HATE talkers. Thats the main reason Ive been running Hypers exclusively since 2003

The quietest concert environments I've ever witnessed were consistently orchestral so I wouldn't worry about it.

And I have seen (heard) some pretty impressive snoring too! There was a guy snoring so loud during a Hayden concerto once that the ushers made him leave...
I use my dpa 4061's and record to not clip at the applause (which is usually the loudest part of a symphony set). If you record 24 bit you can amp up the quiet parts without hissing. and also step on the applause to make it less prominent. Kind of a long process but worth it.
If you have good acoustics in your hall (and most symphony halls do) you'll be pretty happy with any decent omni set up at 24 b.
