After Eric Benjamin told me how well the A-T 3032 omnis had measured in his lab, I ordered a pair to evaluate. The specs say that they have a self-noise level equivalent to 16 dB SPL. Eric said he measured the one he got at 8 dBA! I suspect a lot of the difference (being quieter than the spec) had to do with A-T quoting their noise level from a flat measurement, whereas most manufacturers will quote a weighted (dBA) measurement because it produces a better number.
