I prefer a mix of 2 and 3 [or 4] in the first set. Good example of what outriggers can do in combination with a near coincident arrangement.

If I should choose only one stereo set it would be one of the spaced pairs [3 or 4], although as mentioned, they have an obvious h-O-le in the middle.

My guess 1: VM-1S 2: 8040 3: 4061 4: C-28

In set two I clearly prefer 5 followed by 6. I don't know the C-28, but the "creamy" quality could suggest tubes. So this is my guess. They sound pretty extended in the lows, which could suggest an omni pattern, but it is cardioid, right?

If so 4061 is 6 [which can sound a little lean in the lows - or maybe just unhyped because of it's perfect omni pattern]

7 sounds a little opaque, something that I heard from 8040 do on other samples, but the samples also suggest ORTF.

8 must be the Brauner XY
