From my fairly limited experience running MK4s, I've definitely preferred ORTF over X/Y. X/Y seems to cut even more low end from the Schoeps than other mics. Unless it's an extremely heavy bass situation (FOB @ Panic, etc.) I don't plan on running X/Y anytime in the near future.
My fave config has definitely been DIN. It seems to bring out more of both the high and low end, and creates an overall more natural sound. I've yet to run DINa, but am looking forward to it.
