I have had the good fortune to hear both microphones. The CM7 is superb microphone, but it does seem to be a tad brighter than any 47 I have heard. That certainly may be due to the inevitable aging of the original 47s I have heard. This takes nothing away from the CM7, and it is certainly a world class tool. However, if you're looking for the truest emulation of a U47, IMHO you can't beat the Wagner. It's really a game of inches, but I hear a smoothness and presence in the Wagner that the Wunder is just slightly lacking. The wait list is long, but if you can afford the wait (and the cost) the Wagner is the winner in a very close race.
