[QUOTE my 70's U87 sounds just fine, if not better, thru any pre than most of my other mics that can be particular/dependent regarding a mic and mic pre combo.

sounds good to me adam! the place that has the mics sells the vintage 87 fully refurbished and recalibrated for around 2200, a little higher than your estimate, but it sounds like a very feasible option to me
