  1. when I was running a recording studio people would bring me stuff for mix and master thinking it will fix the crappy recording. That is what musicians believe. And very often recording peoples answer to a problem is "do not worry. They will fix it in the mix."
  2. I did not pay a premium for the sennheisers. I paid premium for the TLM103. Thanks Senator as always very helpful.
  3. Back in 2002 I spoke to Neumann "do not remember if sennheiser owned them at the time" and they told me that in the manufacturing process consecative serial numbers are as close as possible. I asked them if the match them sonically and they said NO.
  4. What is a POS 985? Well I do not think I need them to be tested. EDIT: How much will LSC charge for testing the mics? I played back white and pink noise trough my ADAMS, put both mics next to each other with the same gain and used my RME DICICHECK totalizer "which BTW is a great program" I can see the different frequency response. Also I can hear it. Tom the strange thing is that the ***05 mic has a little LF loss and a little HF boost compared to the other one. I just think I will sell them and buy brand new schoeps 641 from a dealer. I never should have sold my 641!!!!!
  5. It is funny when I tested them at the RAMPS party in my 744t the ***05 mic sounded like a high pass engaged at 250hz but when I went home and plugged it in to my Great River Preamp the low frequencies miraculously came back. After that it sounded ok in both my 744t and mixpre.
  6. By the way the line from "THE NETWORK" in the topic title is a little overboard for which I apologies.
  7. That is way I started buying everything from Trew.
  8. It is not grossly different. Just a little. After I got them from you I tested them my self and they do not sound like the samples that you send me. I would not say that both of them sound bad. Just compered to each other they sound different. When I called Sennheiser I explained that if they repair or exchange one mic I will loose the consecutive serial number matched stereo. Then I asked if I can get another matched set. They said they would only replace a faulty mic. I got a matched pair of TLM103 and paid $400 extra for them. Individually they would have cost $400 less. BTW I tracked the original receipt and found that they were not registered with sennheiser. Do you think they warranty is not transferable?
  9. A few other mics are not in the picture. Loaned them to a friend. This is what I call a brand loyalty. Forgot to add my neumman TLM103 and kms 104
  10. I have an issue with my matched 8040s. They both work but one of them sounds different then the other. Frequency response is close to each other but sounds different even to my wife. White noise and pink noise samples are noticeably different between the 2 mics. Warranty expires in 1 month. I called them explaining the issue and they said they would only fix/exchange a mic that is not working properly. They would not replace both with a matched pair. I just feel hurt by a company that sold me MKH416, MKH60, MKH8040, The entire 900 evolution microphone series, pair of G3s, HD25 II, HD280. Not to mention the MANY MANY times I recommended them to other people Considering selling all my Sennheiser Gear!!!!!!!!!!!! The only product I can not find a good enough replacement for is the 900 Series.
  11. The sennheisers are very, very light and also have " to my ears" bigger bottom end then the schoeps. That is why I use the lowcut on my 744t.
  12. I don't know but maybe the moleskin has something to do with it. MKH8040 has a smaller diameter then cmc6mk41 so there is one layer of moleskin between the mic and the b5d. Are you using the invision mounts with your mic??
  13. If you read my post I am not talking about of the pole. I was swinging my Invision7 mount in my hand. And seriously with the low cut at 80hz and the mole skin on the 8040 there was nothing I could hear.
  14. Just got the B5d from your store Glen. I am sing it with mole skin on a MKH8040 and I am very happy. Thanks for Pointing me in the MKH8040 direction.
  15. what is the name of that thing? Where do I find it in the store. http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/productImages/300/72/72088507-9cda-4807-960a-3b3d27e893c4_300.jpg With the change you can still get a hot dog on the way out! Best storage container ever for this little guy. It will get crushed eventually without something like this.
  16. I have not tried it outside, but I was swinging my mount as hard as I could and there was nothing. UNF**CKINBELIEVABLE. The rycote for mkh8000 may be a choice for outdoors.
  17. I just received my Schoeps B5D Popscreen. All I can say is WOOOOOOOOOOOOW THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I WANT A TIME MACHINE. I FEEL STUPID FOR LIVING WITHOUT IT FOR SO LONG.
  18. Getting ready for the resistance against SKYNET? (:
