bean, you like it, run with it.   just remember, the room config and distance may make variations necessary.

it gave me a "tighter" more "focused" sound than running a "normal" ORTF or a DIN...it was def. what i was looking for in that room....you are dead on about the ditance tho...but i can read my roomz well finally after five years of recording... ;)

what is the correct spacing supposed to be on an ORTF???

As John says, if you like it, use it.  To answer your question:  The standard config for ORTF is 17 cm (6.7"), 110º.  A more dteailed description of ORTF - as well as many other stereo techniques - can be found at the DPA Microphone University:

those weren't mine.  they were being r&d by the factory guy.  i of course offered to field test them ;),  i'll be up at adirondak, telluride 2x and pagosa at least this summer, so i should be able to give them a good workout if he's up for it.  would run them into the v3.  he was running them into an mp-2.

ORTF shoudl be good for your mics, bean...  As mentioned, 7cm w/100-degrees between the caps.

I didn't like it with my M300's, rolled off the highs too much.  I can't run a full 7cm between the caps, either, because the gefell's are pretty short.

I think ORTF tends to sound better with brighter mics...

yeah, me too.  somewhere else on the board there was talk about them absorbing noise.  i tested mine by flicking them with a sharpie, and no noise.
