Well is it just me or does a Royer look like a squared of B&O ribbon mic?

Sorry to all you Royer lovers- I was just beeing sentimental and bitter in a weak moment, because my B&O dosent sounds half as good as your Royers.

Well I should hope not. The Royer costs more than 10 times what the B&O did in its day, so even allowing for inflation the Royer is much more expensive and therefor should sound a whole lot better.

Haven't the B&O microphones been out of production for a few decades? I don't think Royer ever said anything but their design was based on the B&O mics. Why is this news? It's a great design, and nobody was producing them, so why not? This is the age of recreations and copies.
