Blown away!
These are some fantastic microphones. Ive used them as a spaced pair on an upright piano in a less-than-ideal room, and they picked up the source sound flawlessly! The sound is full, rich, detailed, and balanced just the right way without any EQ. Highly recommended!

Sounds awesome without any EQ at all
So amazed by these. I use them to record piano and without any processing, they sound fantastic. Some have said they sound dark, but my Yamaha piano is kind of bright, so it mellows things out just perfectly. These took my recordings up several notches!

Perfect for nasty outdoor conditions.
It will work flawlessly in any environmental conditions. You'll usually need a low cut filter, it's very sensitive at low frequencies. If you're capturing ambiences in windy conditions this combined with a small Cyclone is probably your best choice. The only negative is that you'll need to learn how to tame the low end on this microphone.
