10 cm diameter would (in theory) allow them to pick up a lot more acoustic power than most dynamic mics and hence have a lower self-noise. But I profoundly distrust any mic manufacturer who doesn't publish any specs but only commercial blabla. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
