1. LSD2 Stereo Mic
2. SP C3's with the same capsule as the LSD2, just a stereo pair of mics instead or A stereo mic, with cardiod/figure-8 
/omni...pretty much all i crave out of an LD anyway, it if had a subcard liek the XLS it would be a no-brainer OOOOORRRRRRR
3. ADK TL's, they have the hypers/cards/fig-8/omni and sound pretty damn good, i have never heard the TL>Sax sound but I bet itys pretty damn solid as the TL's have a nice thumping low-end and im sure the sax handles that with pride, and levels it out perfectly. I actually really wanna run ADK TL's>sax at times, i havent heard enough of the SP LSD2 or the C3's(same capsule) to make a decision, but i DO like alot of the SP c4's tapes ive heard and they are half as much for the c3's as the TL's are........hmmmm, decisions, decisions......
I'm running LDs as my primary setup so a pair was essential.
I was not originally looking for LDs specifically. Because I'm taping bands like Mule and Rapdog in smaller venues I really wanted to have the option to run hypers or cards depending on the room. I went with the TLs mainly because they were about all I could find in my price range that gave me both, and LD just happened to be part of the package.
Now I can't say enough good things about the TLs.
I'm truly amazed at the richness of the depth and detail I'm getting from the TLs with silver clad cables. No problem with excessive brightness - the TLs are bangin on the low end.
Four patterns, ability to run any config, a matched pair with all the accessories for $750. That's a lotta bang for your buck. That's why I bought em originally.
But the sound is what I love now. These mics really deliver.
