i dont mean to pick at you, but this friend was naive to say "boxy" ... and to have not heard it makes it naive to say anything.

everyone who has heard the 47 says that it's the best cap of the 4. it's the one that sticks in their minds the next day. it's the one that can be eq'd to fit any song.

just because every modern mic tends toward a 'pre eq'd ' sound dont make it right.



BTW ... i've asked for a Lawson set of 47/251 as there was a mention of that ... does anyone really care for a further shootout?

(it would be Korby v. Lawson, as I've returned the Soundeluxes.)
