Yeah, in his email to me nbenford mentioned this. For normal VO readings in his studio a single mic would be positioned at the best sounding location and angle for the talent. When I do simultaneous A / B tests I tend to work the mics further back to minimize angular errors between them. But getting the mod'd NT1a in the right location relative to the source does result in wow, just WOW ; )
