Would the dpa 4090 be better for that purpose ?

The DPA 406n are omni and what is used for AB. The 4099 is super-cardioid and would work for XY although it is usually cardiods which are used for that. I have never tried super-cards for XY. Perhaps others here have and can offer more help than I.

I use the 4061's in a 40cm AB and it works just fine. Check out Stereo Zoom for info on mic spacing and angles. http://www.microphone-data.com/pdfs/Stereo%20zoom.pdf
