Hi John,

I noticed that you have experience with both the wl-183s and NT1-As.
I am in the process of choosing between these two mics and was
wondering which one you liked better for quiet ambient sound
recordings?  Thunder? Streams? frogs?

Can you give me a comparison the two mics other than the obvious size.

Thanks for your help in advance.
