Title: Schoeps 4s XY w/ actives
Post by: mhibbs on March 10, 2005, 05:04:24 PM

Anyone ever built anything to run mk4s XY w/ actives?  I know the vark
bar is an option but I'm not going to use it that often and I'd rather
not spend $90 or so on a vark bar and the sgc.

It's not terribly flexible for coincident use, but you can do 110 degrees with a Sabra-Som ST2 t-bar:

At more logical angles like 90 degrees, it's not really coincident.  I've never tried it myself but I wouldn't expect good mono compatibility, but otherwise it might be "close enough":
