i took a quick look and didn't find specs, but going by the uses i saw them used for, they are pretty much useless. unless you want an upgrade from the built in mics of an ampex cassette recorder.

hey rasta cruz!!  Good to see you around these parts.  Keep the AT831s or upgrade to some DPA 406x's, forget these mics  ;D
