I think that's putting it mildly, actually. They are quite different sounding, even though they look similar, in my opinion. The 67 is much, much higher on my 'useful' list than the 87. 67's sound great as overheads and as room mics, guitar amp mics, vocal mics, and a lot of other things. If you are looking for something of a similar style, i've been really digging the Soundelux U99S in places where I might use a 67.

Good luck,
John
