Has anyone used a KMS84, and how does that perform in relation to a KM-84?

I have had limited time with a KM84 and have owned a KMS84i for years. I never did a direct comparison between the two, but my memory says this. The KMS is a nice sounding mic that works well for handheld vocals, although, not very bright, and can work well for a spot mic. I have used both on snare and thought the KM to be better (my KMS had less highs). They are similar in sound but the pop screen on the KMS, and some eq in the curcuit, seems to preclude it as a direct replacement for the KM84. That being said, I love my Kms, and use it all the time. My Schoeps do well enough so I don't feel the need to get a pair of the KM84s, (although, you never know, that may change)
