You are so right. The U99 is a pretty cool mic, but it's definitely no 67.

I think part of the appeal of a 67 is that it's bandwidth limited, and no modern designer could ever bring himself to do that. You always hear, "just like a 67, but with an airier top end, a thinner capsule, etc, etc". Totally misses the point.
