SE8 Omni Stereo-Capsule Set : Bang for the buck

If you want to do something with an average budget, these guys are perfect. They are factory matched, not compared with tests like KM184s and other high-end instrument mics. For mine, there are a small difference around 3k (with cardioid capsules) which can be compansated easily with an EQ but these capsules (omni ones) are like same with each other.

I have compared them with DPA's. DPA's a bit softer in a good way and of course have almost no signal-to-noise. SE's have a tiny background noise with them but considering them with a quarter of price (maybe less) makine these guys are a good friend.

I use them with classical recordings plugged into Focusrite 18i20's and they just work fine. No complainments are received.
