I have been doing a lot of remote nature recording at higher gain with the v3 and schoeps mk21.....   gain is in the 50-55db range and I can say I need every bit of noise floor reduction possible.  It is also a challenge to manage any wind noise at those gain levels.

I do wonder about those at 3032's and whether their noise floor would be lower.  Certainly the price is right.

My company has been supplying professional mic systems for this very purpose for over 20 years with mics traveling to the Arctic, high elevation mountains, deep jungle expeditions, and just about anywhere on the globe without a single incident of environmental failure to perform.

Links to recording projects, downloadable samples, and notes on the mic systems used found at: www.sonicstudios.com/mp3.htm

Definitely worth considering if interested in reliably doing this kind of recording.
