What's your current fave for Cardioid SDC's? I've got a pair of
Earthworks TC-30 omni's that kick major bootay, but for
cardioid's I decided to try the Rode NT5's, which I picked up
several months ago... the Rode's are just not clear enough for
my taste - in using them as a pair of room mics for a drum kit,
I find they have a bit too much of the "sparkle" factor. I can
see how they'd be good for acoustic guitar, for example; but I
don't do a whole lot of that sort of thing here... I may end up
selling or trading these puppies if anyone's interested.

Easy (but expensive) solution would be to pick up a pair of
Earthworks card's, but apart from dropping another ~$1,600, is
there anything you guys are using & like in a lower price range?
Josephson C-42's?
AT-4041 or 4051?
Or????

I'm looking for clean & clear.

Neil
