This is cake, at least I hope so...
Surce A...much brighter! The high end is extremely well defined and clear. Clarity was the key to this source sounding good. I should also add that I felt a lot more air, less humid if you wil in this source.
Source B...darker sounding, with a very big well rounded bass. The high end was not pronounced as much, but still there. This feels like the air was thicker, and that time moved slightly slower. This sounds very much like what a mini-me would havfe reproduced to me, but with a lot less top end definition which led to the "back-of board effect" here.
Source A to my ears was clearly the V3, which I recognized almost immediately...again, I hope! Source B is the wmod for sure. The warm mod to my ears, or at least source B, is very apogee sounding with worse a/d's. This leads to that effect I was talking about earlier I think, as the pre is just not that "fast" to my ears, and the sound does not seem to be as well defined at all.
Just my ears, we all hear very diferently
The sound as a whole I thought was very good on both sources, and I actually after listening tonight prefer source A, but probably only with these mics I really don't think schoeps mics need a colored pre, most others do!

If I am right, why Doug would compare the v3 and wmod is beyond me?
