if the e251c sounds nearly as good as the ELUX251, i think it is worth the $3k.
there were some listening tests done at AES last year using the ELUX and the Mercury M72s preamps that impressed nearly everyone that was there (at the Dangerous Music/Soundelux/Mercury party).......
i wouldn't trash the U195 though; it's a great microphone...
but if you have the money, the e251c looks like a great thing to me!!
