I'm not trying to kill the thread at all. You are free to ask all the
opinions you want. You state in another post on this group that you
intend to buy a list of equipment on Monday pending receiving further
opinions from the group. I make up my own mind what I buy for my
business.
It was clearly stated to you that Senn is the best mic going for the
money (next to Lectro for that matter), and you prefer to take the
word of some reviews that the one you have selected is better. The
price difference alone would make me suspicious.....you get what you
pay for.
I own many thousands of dollars of Pro video production equipment and
I have never selected any of it from a survey on this group.
I have learned a lot of things to do and not to do by reading the
group and have seen a lot of critiques of various equipment that might
influence my buying decisions.
Show some decisiveness man, consult your local pro supply shops and/or
fellow working pros and ask what they think.
Again, merely my 2 cents on the matter and no, I am not going to reply
to you in e-mail. :-)
