Very good post. You now know know what I know. The B1's are a very versitle mic. I just have to get the word to let people know that. They do very well on overheads as you have found out, they are very nice for vocals, and in some cases are better than the C1 or the V67 because they are more neutral, but they are a great all purpose mic that at $79.00 should be in more mic lockers.
As you know, we had a little hitch with the internal suspension system. That unfortunately was a manufacturing defect that did not get picked up on test. The reason it did not is we test mics clipped into the mount or clip and shoot it with sound, then we test with measuring equipment, so the mic does not move during the test.
In either case, as you well know, we take care of business and fixed yours quickly, and will do so to anyone having that problem. I am pleased you like the B1's. Hey, add a B3 and you can do M/S!!
