Default What's your view of speaker crossovers?

Indicate when you have got/heard that track and I'll post it again
recorded from my Ruarks a little later on, for comparison....



Also, what do you reckon to this little bugger:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...0656&rd=1&rd=1


- that's about 200 quid less than normal retail and half the price of a
Russian Nevaton equivalent (which are unobtainable anyway)....??

One or two good reviews on the Net from people who I suspect wouldn't
*dare*
to back a crock in public (independent Yank recording studios, mostly),
here
and there...??



I reckon you now have your fair share of cardioids - and you have much
greater flexibility when you have them in separate bodies. I'd leave
this monster where it is.




I wasn't thinking for use as a simple cardoid - it's multi-pattern/stereo
and appears to be quite good for various techniques like M/S and X/Y
(Stereosonic/Blumlein??):

(No funds atm in any case.....)

Well, I would still get another pair of mics - omni probably. You can
still do all the miking techniques with what you have. Also this one
is a bit noisy.

The frog is saved - thank you!
