The choir would only be able to stand about 5 inches higher than floor level.

I might try opening the piano lid on the short stick with the choir singing into the strings if that makes any sense.

I have just remembered i have access to a Sennheiser ME66 Supercardioid Stereo Mic that might be of some use.

If i were to invest in another set of omni's at some stage what type would compliment the 4006s and R88? I have read great things about the Sennheiser MKH series. I wouldn't want to buy mics that don't 'blend' with my setup and i suspect i will be recording mostly classical performances. (I know i need to buy proper mic stands for choral first though.)

Have you used the R88 in M/S? Can i use the R88 in Blumlein setup and experiment after the session with M/S? Forgive all the questions. I really appreciate your advice.
