Hi Mark,

I have unfortunately no experience with the MKH416, but I have the even mor=
e expensive MKH60 as well as the ME66/K6.

The MKH 60 provides a subjectively lower inherent noise floor than the ME66=
/K6. Due to its optimization for the human ear, it is however noisier at fr=
equencies above about 10 kHz, where the ME66/K6 provides better results (wh=
ich would be an issue for bioacoustic research).

Regards,
Raimund
