Hi -- thanks for the reply.  You're right, for things like birds and certai=

sounds, rolling off steeper than 40 Hz would be no problem.  I'm also doing=

So if I understand you correctly, the larger Rycote stereo setup will be be=

than the mono.  Makes sense.

By the way, I'm still wondering if anyone has any luck shockmounting a whol=

thanks!
