hey. picked up a pair of those nady ribbons on e-bay. they are supposedly in brand new condition, having been display models. a friend and i did some semi-scientific tests, using a white noise generator, of their frequency responses. the results are here:

since one of the mics is slightly louder at all frequencies, i believe it may have been a tad closer to the speaker, by accident. i'm not sure though.. they may just have uneven outputs..
they are serial numbers 1592411283 and 1592411289. what i would like to do here is create a sort of database of rsm-2 mics, to try to make evaluations of quality control in different batches, etc.. for the record, these tests were about 6" away from a mackie hr824, pointed right between the woofer and tweeter, through an FMR RNP. also, in terms of overall Db output, they were pretty much exactly the same as my friend's beyer m-500.
discuss. also, i may cross-post this at tapeop..
