Hey Walt and you other MKH'ers out there.  This has been facinating
reading (and listening), and the MKH-80(0) comes across as a very
versatile mic.  But I've got this nagging worry about double-diaphragm
mics -- MKH-80(0) do have two diaphragms to get all the patterns, right?
Seems to me they'd be a bit more distorting that the equivalent single
diaphragm mic.  Have you been able to compare an MKH-80 in omni mode
against an MKH-20?  Perhaps an interesting tradeoff between clarity
and effective noise floor.
