Simon Hayes posted a video commentary to Instagram and Facebook on using two KMITs with CMD42 pre-amps.

If there are people who have used a KMIT, it would be great if they could post about their experience with it.

they offer upgrades for older mics to the "D' generation capsules.

But what about Windscreen with dirt and moisture resistance?

I've always wondered about this claim from Rycote. No spec, no tests or empirical data, at least that I have seen.

My 4017B/C have performed well in severe conditions (think southern US, outdoor dusty scenes, etc.). Last time they were sent to CO they were returned with a clean bill of health and pretty close to the original certificate when tested with sine.

I would take everything that rycote says with a grain of salt.

But I have no experience with it, I just considered buying it, but I decided that I would not go into rain and I have this freedom.
