I notice the specs on the MKH 800 show a frequency response of 30 Hz
- 50 kHz. Does the drop off at 30 Hz ever seem a problem? I know
that in the modern world I usually want to rid my recordings of low
frequency intrusions - but not always. Also, how does the frequency
response well above the 20 kHz upper limit that the SD722 can achieve
come into play? Is the extra 30 kHz range on the high end useful?
