Which is why it's so quiet. And why I advise people to beg you to make
them EM-23s in very short cylinders (sorry, but you spoiled me).
Unfortunately the EM-23 isn't flat, but it sounds good raw and even
better equalized to flatten the response. Worth the effort, I don't
know of any other way to get as quiet with body- or head-worn mics.
