hi Lynn
my i ask?
i see on gearslutz you have offered what i would say was more then sound advice on the subject of ribbon mic's.
you have mentioned have a few of the china made ( nady ) mic's one of which you mention being the shiny box.
i have very little knowledge as to ribbon mic's.
i do have a B&O that Clarence Kane did the so called RCA-44 mod to, ( which i understand to simply be the RCA ribbon ) and a Oktava.
a friend of mine is into ribbons and has a few he also has the B&O that he also sent to Clarence for the same mod, he say's it is now among his favorite ribbon mic's.
so to the question.
have you thought about sending Clarence one of the Nady ribbon mic's to have the trany swapped out and the RCA ribbon put in?
as you have so many ribbon and are your opinion is so trusted i would like to know if it was worth the effort.
i have thought about getting some of the other ribbons such as the sure's , ev's, reslo's and who knows what, just not sure if it is worth it in the end.
any way just some thoughts.
