i agree the schoeps hyper is superior to the rest of the hypers out there.  ALL that i said was that it depends on what music/rooms he taped.  If he spends every weekend taping bluegrass outdoors or classical music in good-sounding halls, i'll be damnned if he should be running mk41's.  

I agree completely, if all I was taping was outside or in a good sounding room I would want either the cards or the subcards.

I spent 2 hours in a courtroom yesterday (no, I was not personally involved) watching an insurance case...  Litigation is not for me!  More power to you guys that can do it

since you say you'd be using them mostly for stealthing i'd go w/ the mk4 > nbox setup or ccm4 over the mk4 > kc5 > cmc6.  not having to deal w/ the bodies is a big plus when you have to keep your stuff as concealed as possible.

Best hyper...hmm, I would go with the gefell m21 as the best!!!

you guys are great.
I saw the demo pair of CMC6?MK4s for sale(now on ebay) but no active cables with it, pushes the final package price pretty high.
 Most of my taping is from good seats in a 700 seat theatre, good acoustics and a Meyer PA. I'm pretty eclectic in my tastes, and tape jazz, singer songwriter types, Allison Krauss, Rock and blues(David Lindley, Taj) and classical too(Kronos Quartet). I'm a bit surprised to hear a strong vote for the hyper, and it's good to know that the Schoeps hyper cap is well thought of.
  Seems like the consensus is the CCMC4 is going to sound the same as the CMC6/MK4 setup, and that if I think I'm going to happy with the Cardiod cap all the time, to pick up the CCMC4s.             Doug

based on what music you tape and the venue, it sounds to me like you'll be very happy with the ccm4's...you can always resell em if they end up being not what you're looking for...have fun!

go get em... the ones in the yard sale are a great deal. I think you'll be very pleased!

[creekfreak]

if all you want to do is stealth and are always in a good sounding room, then get the ccm4's.
