    it's certainly a nice mic...but i ran into a good price for a pair of Peluso CEMC6s. so i don't think i need 81s anymore. and they have such a good resale value ($270 on ebay without a case, still 4 hours to go), i couldn't resist replenishing the space in my bank account that the Pelusos created.
