keep in mind that this is based on the simplest mathematical models of both. it doesn't necessarily mean much with regards to chambered designs. the k67 is NOT a simple two-diaphragm capsule with resistance between. It has a chamber in the middle, which acts a little differently than just acoustic resistance. Not to mention the double, triple, or even quadruple chamber models out there with both 1 and 2 diaphragms. this paper does ring true for the behavior I've observed on true "simple" 2 diaphragm capsules, like the k47, and i'm sure it predicts behavior well between matched examples, but its applicability beyond that is a bit questionable. Not saying it's not, but I don't think I could definitively say that it is either. The JLI103 you evaluated a few days ago which you mentioned had both less boom and fewer pops is single-diaphragm and chambered.Not arguing that, but there is the other argument for some of the side benefits of just having two capsules in cardioid mode. Which some might think defeats the point, but there are readily observable differences in proximity effect and plosive handling in close-mic'ing situations (due to difference in directionality at lower frequencies), which the white paper Kong shared elaborates on.
