Yes, please do!
I guess noise and sensitivity outweighs size, to a certain extent. I=B4m ju=
st happy to not dragging around sigar-mics or even bigger rigs anymore. 12m=
m is to live with. The Primo=B4s are only slightly smaller and they weigh a=
bout 1% of my earlier mics.
Thanks for the tips, I=B4ll check more into the Tsb=B4s.

 which of them? It seems the 120a=B4s are quite popular, could it be them? =
And do you have any samples online? Would be fun to hear!
