The cv-28 looks like the rebadged groove tubes gt44. Which is a great mic in my opinion. I picked up a pair after reading fletcher and several others diggin them. No complaints for the price. There is also a company called Sterling Audio that does a smilar mic. Also, didn't the km-54 and km56 use nickel diaphragms?
