But you can already own a "Real SP mic" for a low price: the B and C series. An SPA mic, however, might cost you slightly more
Personally, being a bland middle-of-the-road kind of guy (
), I'm looking forward to their E Series mics. Which have been forthcoming since... forever.Flatpicker

That's news to me, I run our websites and that info doesn't exist anywhere.
CS,
The E Series is a new line for Studio Projects we've been planning for a while, designed by Brent as higher end mics made in the USA. Other information will be kept back until the release of the mics.

acorec said:
According to the website (using your logic, acorec) , it looks like PMI bought Sony, too!
Boy, the profit margins on those B1's must be bigger than we thought!
All joking aside, I believe that PMI's affliation with Stephen Paul Audio is one of distribution and marketing only, same as with Sony.
Re: Re: Stephen Paul Audio (SPA)
I have no problem with a major distributer handling the SPA mic line. as we have seen many times in our buisness, quality products (or artists for that matter) falling off the face of the earth due to the lack of any support.

Ahem. SPA is "Distributed" by PMI. They are not owned by PMI. They are owned by SPA. As I understand it, PMI puts the product in the stores much like they do for Sony. They do not "Own" SPA. So you have told us nothing as usual. Maybe you should re-read Justin's post enough times so it sinks in.

Go to this link. It CLEARLY STATES THAT THE SPA IS A PMI COMPANY NO IF AND OR BUTS ABOUT IT.
Now I suppose you will start to argue that I can't read. I am not starting a bitch fest, but, if you maintain the website, you must have not read what it says. I just thought that PMI now owns Stephen Paul Audio.

In acorec's defense it is misleading. If I wandered in off the street I would think PMI did in fact own SPA.

So fucking what?
A reality check people……………………………;
Stephen Paul died recently!!! Any company owned by him will likely be tied up in legal issues for quite some time…………IN OTHER WORDS…………if SPA is a PMI owned business, it would have to have been arranged well before Stephen died. So what’s the issue?
Again, because Stephen’s forum was removed from RO, this can’t be easily proven, BUT I am sure that Stephen said that the mic development and manufacturing WAS NOT part of SPA, but a different business…………Stephen Paul Microphones, which would probably be included in Stephen’s estate.
Ask yourselves, do you want to see Stephen’s work disappear, or would you hope that PMI continue what they started with Stephen? If it’s the former, then just continue to post these inconsequential, nit-picking, fuck-arsed, muck-raking questions. If it’s the latter, then please show a modicum of common sense and let things take their natural course.
