I'm new to the list and apologize if this question has been asked before:

I'm looking for a high quality stereo mic that can be used in various recor=
ding situations and
wondered if the Telinga Stereo mic (sans parabolic dish) can be used as a s=
ubstitute for a
more traditional stereo mic like the Shure VP88 (which I've also been consi=
dering).  I need a
stereo mic that will record a a fairly wide field (for example, the ambient=
 sounds of a forest or
crowd sounds on a city street) that can then be use as a sound bed under mo=
re specific
sounds (an interview of a person or the call of a specific bird).

Of course, I'm also interested in the Telinga stereo mic coupled with its p=
arabolic dish to
focus in on bird calls, etc.  I just can't justify the purchase strictly fo=
r its parabolic functions.

If I can achieve both goals in a single set up, that would be great.  Can I=
 do both with a
Telinga Stereo mic?  And if so, are there any serious compromises to consid=
er in using the
stereo mic (sans parabolic dish) as a traditional stereo mic.

(By the way, I would use the set up with a Sound Devices 722 recorder.)
