The imaging STILL won't be the same though. The patterns of each mic overlap significantly in XY, creating a center-heavy image. The ambience is collapsed to the center, making it more difficult for the mind and ear to isolate and focus on the sound.

OP, check your PMs if you want to hear comparative samples.
