been using Neumann M150 Tube mics for the room. make my medium sized drum room sound huge (unlike the huge rooms that i've never had any luck *recording* huge).
coles are great. royers can be nice. although the SF12 for me is too unfocused in our room. M249's can be cool (like U67's). some folks use PZM's strapped to the concrete wall. one or two SM57's are always nice to have come mix time (useful for listen mics too).
