Rodger, welcome to the forum! It is always treat for us to hear directly from the manufacturer himself.   Running a business is a difficult job, especially when you are doing most all of the work yourself.  You've obviously a lot of hats to wear.

It is good to hear your operation is in good health and that there is more demand than you can fill - a good business problem to have as business problems go.  Thanks for taking the time out of your busy schedule to post here and share some of the details of your operation and best of luck to you.  I look forward to hearing some of your gear in the future.

If you want to hear some samples there is a couple of Line Audio products (SM6i omni+card+fig8,CM3, SM3i,CM2) hit the following link (this link has been posted here before). Plenty of microphones that is popular on TS are tested as well.

So. Feedback. Seems like Roger has given answers. I have checked the local stores - seems like there are no Line Audio mics in store around here right now. You might try www.holmerup.biz -- he is a small operation and cannot run credit cards (too high investment to get it running). Be advised that freight from Sweden may be rather high. If anyone is still interested, try PM-ing me and I will try to arrange something. No promises though (I am just a fellow taper with a day job).

Glad to see this company is still out there.  I have also been interested in the CM3 pair, as well as the 2-channel pre.  Thanks for clearing the air, Roger.

Yeah, I noticed the preamp on their web site too. 2MP, successor of the DMP.
Nice form factor, similar to the UA-5. But it runs on AC only, no good for field use...

Maybe there is a possibility to run this preamp with an external battery?
From what I've read it seems to have a very clean sound, 60 db gain at a low price...

The power jack of the preamp takes AC only, so you'd need an DC/AC inverter.
Typically, these are power hungry (ineffective), heavy and might introduce buzz, so most tapers who tried using an inverter in the field gave up. YMMV.

Necro-bumping this to share an outstanding album made entirely with just one pair of Line Audio CM3 mics...
http://elswhr.co/projects/lumiere

After listening to the great user samples on Gearslutz boards and then this stellar recording I think a pair of these will now be my next purchase.
