Wow, with all those constraints, it sure gets tough to get an affordable mi=
c.  I believe the max SPL of 106 dB is with the recorder's PIP only; it goe=
s up to 121 dB with a 9V battery module, and 131 db with phantom power.

15dB self-noise?  Wow I can't afford anything that low.

The AT4022 sure is a nice mic, with great specs, but way too expensive for =
me.

Maybe I need to rethink this recording hobby.  In world of photography one =
can still make a decent go in the hobby without having to buy Leica cameras=
 and lenses, but in audio recording, I guess there is no compromise?
