Hi Shaun,

I've been testing all 3 Peluso mics, the LE, 22-47 and the 22-251.

I had a professional female vocalist in my studio, and the results are:

I have worked with the Neumann U47 at Westlake, but the 47 LE and 251 are great mics. From my results, if you're showcasing a vocal, the 47 LE was excellent. If you're looking to blend the vocal into the mix, the 251 did that quite well.

Both the LE and 251 were used with set-up 1 "Avalon M5 > 1176LN" set-up 2 "UA LA-610", and set-up 3 "Buzz Audio M2.2TX >1176LN". They all had their own characteristics, but they all sounded fantastic.

The 47 LE low frequency is very warm, and the mids are extremely smooth. The high freq has enough air to make it pleasing to the ear. The 251 has less bass, the mids is well balanced, and the high freq has much more bite to it, yet still maintaining the smoothness and air.

These are very well built microphones. I did like the 22-47 short body, but after hearing the LE, the short body presented too much mid for my taste.

I don't mean to bump this, but I figure since more have had these mics since last year, some one can tell me.. not to mention most threads are about the LE.
