I have MM HLSC-1 cards but i´m leaning towards buying some omnis too...
What are my options if I want good sound quality and stealth?
I was thinking about something similar to the OKM IIR. My budget is ~ 300 dollar i think, so DPAs are out of the question.
Thanx!

Look at the Church Audio Omni's if the MM omni's aren't to your liking.

The omnitype stealth mics under 300-400 dollars that I´m considering are the following:
*Soundman OKM IIR (if one can find any used ones as they are not produced anymore)
*Sonic studios SS DSM-6s
*Core Sounds C.S.B.
*Chris Church omnis
*Sound Professionals SP CMC-8**, SP-CMC-4u* and SP-CMC2* (all need the 4.7 k mod right?)
*Microphone madness HLSC-omnis
Anyone that would add any mic to this list? And How would you rank these alternatives when it comes to sound quality?
Thanks!
*cards
**available both as cards and omnis

The Sennheiser MKE2 is a great choice. (Microphone Madness sells them cheap as the "HLSO") Very small and sounds amazing.
Also the AT U853 (Sound Pros CMC-4U) is stunning. The omni directional capsule for this line is by far the best mic availible from Sound Pro's IMO. "UE-O"
The rest of the capsules have their limitations, but the omnis, I can't find anything wrong with them...
