Hi folks.
Wondering if people can share thoughts / insights / experience on this question..
I'm just at the final phase of my ioAudio MK47 build - definitely the biggest DIY electronics project I've ever undertaken!
I'm hoping to be testing it in the next few days (if not later tonight!) when I've finished making the final connections inside the mic body and mounting the (Cathedral Pipes 'DALE M7') capsule.
I also have a couple of sets of the D-U47 fet PCB's, waiting in the wings, and planning to build these into an Equinox body kit, too - same as I have done with the MK47.
So, in anticipation of everything coming together as planned with each build, I started to wonder.. how different should I expect these mic's to sound from each other?
It got me curious, has anyone else here already built both the MK47, as well as U47 fet style mic?
It would be really interesting to know, if you use the same mic body & head grill, & the same capsule .. would these mic's potentially sound quite similar, or not?
What would the differences be?
(say, in cardioid only mode on each mic)
Has anyone built both mic versions, using same capsule type, and/or head grill etc, so as to be able to share their observations?
Thanks in advance,
Evan.
