can we please talk about the microphones instead of pricing. It is unfortunate that price for a shorter custom length is the same as a standard longer length, but that is the price you pay for custom. Actually I doubt the 10 meter cables would take up that much more room in your taping bage. They look to be really small. Plus, if you ever need the extra length for running lip of stage or clamping up high, you have got it. If I get a pair, I will probably just go with the 10 meter set.
