Hi Emil--
Comparing MBP 648 PZ's to AT4022's on the SD 702
or DR680 would be very telling-- especially in
the quieter location your planning the next test
for. Did you ask whether the 648 PZ heads can be
detached from the plates? I see that capsules
with different polar patterns can be used. If
they have omni's, they might be even quieter than
the cardioids. Rob D.
