Does that go for the Naked Eye also? (being more hi-fi and good build quality) I just want a great dirty guitar cab mic, thats all I truly care about with the ribbons right now, until I discover other things they are great at, at least.
It seems like the ribbon is in wide open on the Naked Eye. Seems a bit dangerously open without any wind stoppage at all. Scares me. Is it a bang for the buck mic though? Stand up to the 121?
I kind of like the SHinybox I have so far, and Wagener seemed to think it was decent too, but we chose the Royer 122v and the Royer 121 over it each time. Go figure.
