Topic: stereo microphones....

[kgreener]

Yes Doug has been reviewing indeed!  Latest update from him came out this morning...he's just about gushing over the LSD2.  There are sound samples and all.  This might be all I need to push me over the edge and go for this thing.  Hey, maybe we can all go in and get a group discount on LSD2's?  

Here's a snippet:

"I must say I love these mics. I can see no reason for anyone spending less than 1500.00 on a pair of mics not taking the time to audition these. I feel the C4 is the choice for entry level mics. The LSD2 is a great choice for those who love large diaphragm mics but cannot afford a U89 or TLM170 and have issue with the HF of the plethora of re branded Chinese mics rich in HF problems. I was surprised to find the LSD2 to be a world class performer for a bargain basement price, very highly recommended !
enjoy...Doug"

I've made some good recordings with the Shure VP-88...its rugged and does a couple of patterns...

did I mention my Sony ECM-MS908c mic was an awesome stereo mic?

I've got a bunch of mp3 samples of the Rode NT-4 posted at:

Most are 90 second clips, except the Perpetual Groove, which is a 13 minute jam. All but the Dan Hicks were recorded with the NT-4. 
What do y'all think?  They sound all right to me, but I am saving up for something better.

ive never been a fan of the r0de mics.  they always sound really brittle and dry to me.
