"Matched pairs" comes up here from time to time. The theory sounds
great, and maybe someday I'll be willing to pay the price for a
"matched pair" of high-end mics, but as a practical matter, I have a
feeling that any random pair of any microphone model from the same
manufacturing era might be better matched than my two 49-year-old ears.
