So how does the ShinyBox sound compared with Beyer M160 & Royer (both of
which I have used)? Does a $310 mic (46L) really outperform a Royer?!?
I just scanned the shinybox.com, but didn't see much description of the practical
difference between the 46, 46C, & 46L except about the transformers. How
are the spendier ones better?
I don't suppose anyone has got one of the new SE Electronics Ribbon mics
to report on? I have one of their tube mics (SE 5000) which I like a lot.

the SE stuff. We just used a matched pair of SE3's on some guitar overdubs.
We compared them to a matched pair of Neumann KM 184's and a pair of AKG
C460B's before we committed to them. The SE3's sound great. I think this
company is hitting some home runs with some high quality products at very
good prices.
