Hi Klas,
Are you sure that this was not a matter of EIN differences? At least the di=
ffence between the Sony D50 and the Zoom H2 for instance is huge (-126 vs -=
99 dBu).

I can only speculate here. My guess would be that it has something to do wi=
th the PIP power. As we have discussed earlier, powering two EM 172 capsule=
s on each channel of the Sony M10 might cause a drop of the supply voltage =
(measured at the mics) below a critical value. Due to tolerances between th=
e individual capsules, it might work fine in most cases, but perhaps not in=
others.

I never had my hands on a Nagra recorder. So, I don't know.
