I wrote three separate rants on how I was having trouble stereo micing acoustic guitar with a pair of NT-1s and a dbx386 tube mic pre. Kept getting >20dB discrepancy in signal level between channels. But after each draft I noticed that I hadn't done <all> my homework in researching the problem and went back to try those ideas. Hence the multiple drafts. I spent hours designing experiments and performing them. I even bought new cable. This was shamelessly tossing money at the problem and I'm now quite sick about it, but rationalize that expense by noting that now I've got two cables that are twins and are long enough to reach the next room, which I use to block out the PC fan. I'm just a little saddened that I can't hear a real difference between this Monster Standard 100 Pro-Link cable and the cheapies from Guitar Satan. When the tube mic pre finally warmed up, the problem went away....
