I have 10 transportable but thin acoustic panels that can be mounted on mic stands. they are 120cm x 62cm, and are xxl acoustic panels mounted on 3mm ply.

The earthworks are stunning. Really clean and beautiful. However i'd like to use them on everything. I have yet to put the r122 through it's paces. I have heard that the earthworks are great on bass. Maybe I'd put one on the bass, one as a drum overhead and use the r122 on piano. Obviously i'd lose the stereo. Would that be a problem?

They would handle the r122 I recon but not the r92. It needs a shed-load of gain. Even the SSL struggles (a little) with quiet sources.

Thanks for the info
