Used to have

at853's to mod ad20

Liked the sound, but was missing a bit for me


Switched to at853rx with mp-2

Warm sound (prolly from the mp-2)  But sounds fuller to me, and quick transients are handled better imho...

the 853/mp2 combo is very nice.

Jon do you have AT831's or 853's running off of phantom power?

I think most everyone will attest that there is a considerable improvement, verses the batt. box. With phantom I doubt you'd every really need to use the bass roll-off. 

I recorded my first show with them Wednesday and I'm impressed with the sound.



i've heard a few 853 phantom ones and didn't hear that much difference to warrant me wanting to phantom mod the 831s i have from the SoundPros. i especially don't see any need since i use the akgs for non stealth gigs.
