The lack of ambience, maybe... I find the sound narrow and too centered, esp. (but not only) over headphones. I prefer stereo techniques with at least some time difference. Super-precise pinpoint imaging is not a top priority in my recordings. The imaging in small AB, Straus or ORTF setups is good enough for me...
