Got tipped off that this had been lying dormant in a smalltown pawn shop for about a year or more. They seemed glad that someone actually wanted it. May we ask what you paid?

It's a very large pawn shop and seemed to be legit. They have lots of good quality instruments there.
It has the "i" of the "Ai" way off to the side. Serial number indicates it probably around 1991. John Peluso is gonna send me a shock mount and a hardshell suitcase for it.
You may ask what I paid, but I'll never tell. I might just wanna sell it to one of you someday!
UPDATE: Neumann confirms the date as 1992.

We AB-ed it side-by-side with our circa 2008 U87Ai. They were pretty much identical sonically, which is impressive considering the 16-year difference.
Which also makes me stand firmly on my opinion in the thread about clones sounding brighter. The longer I do this, the more I grow skeptical that older mics become inherently less bright over time.

Can "the Dude abides" still work? Can we still "hate the fu**en Eagles"? Just checking Chris P.S. (Cues up Eagles Greatest) My fave album of theirs otherwise, "Desperado" BTW.
