I would say so with feedback like that, plus being a powerseller, don't get that selling bunk.

Of course you can also take your chances at Guitar Center. This month they have a buy one for $99 get another for free sale. They are not matched in any way though.

At some point these mics had to be tested to prove a match.  See if there is any print outs of the frequency responce test for each capsule available.  I have a print out for all 6 capsules I own.

He is the only one that offers truely factory matched pairs from what I understand.  He had a deal at one point to spec them for Octava, then dump the non matched ones back to the factory.  I believe Oktava had him listed as the sole importer of matched pairs, not that  no one else can do it, but he was factory approved or something like that a couple of years ago.
