Jason, Next time you rin into Carl Beck ask him about his 4022s. I believe his exact words were "I fucking hated to pieces of freeze-dried dog shit". He has owned Schoeps, AKG 48x's, DPAs and now runs my old c34. When I was looking to put my rig back together I aksed him what he whould do (after he refused to sell me back his (my) c34). He said that with out question he would get Schoeps. In his case mk41's and mk21's ~> CMC6. The Schoeps nay-sayers can piss and moan and -T me all they like but, Save for the WI panic show when security forced me and Charles under the balcony, all of my tapes with my new rig have smoked on all of my playback systems (I ma not trying to brag in the least here but none of them are crap and if a tape blows, I'll hear it...period) The Fabers, Krell/Martin Logan (yes fucking 'stats), HD600 cans, they all kick ass.
There is a reason that so many people run Schoeps and it's B.S. that it's just cause they want to wave their CMC6's around like their cock and the chicks love 'em (well the chicks do think Schoeps are damn sexy, right Stacy? [I won't tell Tim]). It's cause they make damn good tapes. Even more so with the Hess/Kwon DINa bars coming into more widespread use rather than the ORTF bars.
The Milabs are interesting but I don't like what I see on their response chart. I know the 11/4 Panic tapes smoked but most of the other discs I have heard sound just like the graph says they should sound... boosted in the high end.
Lastly, for now, why a 702? Do a 722. You will thank yourself later, the internal HD is, in my expierence, far more usefull than timecode. The fact that you can use either the INHDD, CF, or EXHDD (of which I have all) simply kicks ass. C-link will take care of most of what you would need the TC for (and you can still synch to an external TC with a BNC cable on a 722 anyway). Trust me, when you are dumping a C-inked 744 14GB files of the SBD+OMNI to your 80gb bus powered EXHDD in 10 min in the hotel so you can go home and do your 6 ch mix at home to compare with your friends FOB DPA 4022>722 (which you will smoke) that you dropped your 8gb flash card in and grabbed abck at the end of the set, all the while having a full backup of your mk4v>kc5>cmc6>V2>722 safely in your INHDD you will be very, very glad you have a 722.
