Just got a used SDC from eBay, it's an electret and it's definitely the capsule that's the problem because another capsule works just fine on that body and the noisy capsule sounds the same on another body. I've already contacted the seller because the listing said the mics were in "good working condition". The noise is a very loud hiss (I'd say like a waterfall or the ocean) and the capsule has lower output than the working capsule (both mics are the same model). Could it be humidy or moisture on the capsule, or maybe dirt? Or some issue with the charge of the capsule since it's electret?
