Now they have been relegated to outriggers/ambience mics or sometimes as spots
I can see using 451's as spots when you need to cut through. But there is talk going on in this thread from T Ray saying "

Schoeps are not the be all end all, though that is a popular rumour"
and I fully disagree. Comparing those against the 451's is like night and day. With acoustic instruments as a main pair 99% of the time, a schoeps, or a DPA will kick butt over the 451.
