I agree about the fine off axis respond of the S7.
I just have one S7 [black grid], and think it's a most natural sounding microphone [even compared to some of the more expensive ones]. It's not brittle in any sense, or honky or anything else that many designs can be to some extent, especially cheaper ones. I really like it!
I will consider getting more and know that the T7 should be on its way!?
So therefore these questions:
I'm aware that T7 will offer both cardioid, fig. 8 and omni, but want to know if T7 in cardioid mode will sound as good as the "ABC versions" of the S7? Is there any differences between them, even if they're small, either because of the grid, the capsule used or otherwise? Will noise specs be the same? Is it the same circuits and electronic components used, or is it just about the same?
I truly believe S7 [and hopefully T7] is a great microphone even if we forget the price, but would like to know if it's also a quality microphone in the sense that it use components that will last for many years, just as the more expensive ones ADK are offering?
Moreover can T7 be expected to come out in stereo pairs also and finally, when will it be released..?
Kind regards,
Mads
