| There's an interesting new product from Audio-Technica, the BP4025 X/Y
| Field Recording Mic.
|
| <http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/wired_mics/5bbed15003fe56a2/>
|
| It's an XY pair (on a tiny barrier) of large-diaphragm electrets.
| Sensitivity is high, -32 dB re 1V at 1 Pa, and self-noise is 14 dBA.
| Phantom power down to 11V, 5-pin XLR. Response and polar plots look a
| bit rough. Street price around $600.

Yes rather odd 2 semi coincident mic capsules at about 160deg. Suppose they=

must have added some X-talk to simulate a more conventional angle.
