I must say The Senns will make you work for the right pull but they are so warm and luscious and accurate that I like them better than the Schoeps hands down...
I would say though that if I just had to plug mics in to a deck no HP filters available and I was not going to edit the files after I would record with the Schoeps for a band like the NMA.. Lots of mud in their sound and what you here is what you get with the sens... The Schoeps would be more colored to eliminate just a little of it
I recorded A friend on solo acoustic guitar and the senns just killed the Schoeps IMHO... There is such a forward warmth and presence to them as if your ear was on the bridge while the guitar is played...
I really love them...
