I have, only I call them Audix micros. ;)

After a bunch of shows with them, I really do think they sound like AKGs.  It's great to have that sound in such a small package. ;D

Shoulder mount... kinda weird to explain:

wearing two shirts..
run cabling down shoulder blade between the shirts.  plug in mic, wedge between the shirts, the tension from the shirt holds them inplace. bottom of cable, run thru belt loops to fanny pack (if you have one) and plug in. they stick out a bit but it works pretty good. You may need to run the bass roll off doing this... I ran em thru an Aerco pre and was VERY bassy but turned out pretty good overall.
Never heard of this way of mounting, I was gonna arm pit them until MED9 showed me the way of the jedi stealther.

fang on 04/29 and prong on 05/01
Prong was REALLY bassy, but then again, the part of the room I was at was kind of like a bass trap.... I can't remember how Prong turned out off hand, but buddy has the tape atm.
