Has A/B compared Akg c414's (ULS) and Neumann km 184's as stereo pairs ( need decent drum over heads). I've used them both, but the neumanns were a while ago in a studio with pretty shitty acoustics and the AKG's were fairly recently in a studio with really nice acoustics so i'm not in a position to compare them.

He's just joshing. See the little smilie face after his post? Usually, posts from new members deal with significantly lower-quality mics.

The more appropriate comparison would be the AKG C460/480 with the cardioid capsule (CK61). (The 184 is a small diaphragm condensor) I've done exactly this comparison recording strings and found better results using the AKG over the Neumann. YMMV.
