I had a Rode NT2000 which was ok for it's cost but still nothing special. Even though I have to say that in the few times I used it I never had the need to de-ess. Also Rode mics in general have a very low self-noise and this is obviously not the case with Sample B.

Despite I still like B more but I somehow feel that the overall quality of the recording with such mics could have been better. What was the rest of the signal chain?

Cheers.
