AT853 Size Comparisons Please
« on: July 19, 2006, 03:52:31 PM »
i was wondering if anyone could take some pictures of their AT853's with out and with windscreens if possible compared to other small mics and coins (quarters dimes nickels and such) i just want to make sure they arent to big before i make the leap and buy a pair.

Thanks

Small enough for stealthing, trust me:

If you want slightly smaller mics, try and track down some AT933s (same caps, smaller bodies). Or adapt your own, as I did (CMC8 bodies + converter + AT853 caps).

Of course you've read about them possibly overloading at loud gigs, and the phantom power / preamp solution? Lots of info here.
