Few thoughts... 1. Does wiz know what 3 inches is? I double-checked and it's about 7.5CM for you metriculated people. 2. I hear great similarities in tone between the Royer and Mesanovic and a lot with the R84. 3. The Coles seems to be the odd man out here, and I didn't really like it. 4. I would have loved to hear a Samar in there!! |

I don't think I'm such a fan of brighter ribbon mics.
I way prefer our R84 over our N22's and if forced to pick one I would still take the R84 over the Rode NTR.
Adding a little high end EQ to a R84 works way better than adding low end EQ to a N22.
If I feel I need for more high end say on an acoustic guitar or mandolin etc I tend to just go for something like a KM84 unless I need a figure 8 pattern to make use of the null.

My ears liked the Mesanovic and the R84.
I've never heard a guitar amp that I couldn't get bright enough but still have "the sound." If I need less low end, It'll get it from the amp or move the mic back a little bit.
Plus, they sound like they'd be great as overheads or room mics. I'd rather filter lows than not have 'em in that application.
I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on a 121! I was looking for a while then I just closed my eyes and looked away from microphones for a long time. I could work with it, though...
