^ Anyone know what these are? Looks like they are circa 2005. That's right around when Church Audio started up, right?

These were made around 2004 to 2006 these mics are called VFM mics. they do not handle loud sound pressure. they do however sound very good for ambiant sound recording they are very flat from 20hz to 20khz they did extend to 40khz but that was never tested. they did come with mini tripods and windscreens. I still have some of the tripods. the thread on the bottom is a standard tripod thread. the original price was $139. they were sold exclusively on ebay. I sold about 150 pairs of these mics.

Cool thanks. I'll probably pass on them because I have CA-14(C) and CA-11(Omnis II). Since I have those I don't have much use but if anyone needs a cheap pair of mics...

these were really designed for recording large meetings. set one mic at one end of the table and the other at the other end. I had many customers use them for all kinds of general recording. even acoustic shows.
