Audio Technica AT 4041...Highly Underrated Mic

Tremendously underrated mic, especially for acoustic guitar/instruments. Used a stereo pair of them on acoustic guitar with superb results. Highly accurate, beautiful mids, and a nice, pleasing, subtle, air-ey top end. This has to be one of the very best of mics regardless of price for acoustic instruments. Anyone else had experience with these? I'm wanting to "move up" to perhaps a stereo pair of Neumann KM-184s or Schoeps CM 6s but I'm not sure they will be appreciably better? I'd welcome any comments from others who've used these mics.

more mics you should really consider:

1/ DPA 4090 pair (unmatched)
2/ Shure KSM 141 pair
3/ Rode NT55 pair or Rode NT5 pair

yes the Neumann might be slightly better, and schoeps definitely better but it comes at a price.
