Well, I wasn't worried about being wrong because I was actually hoping I was, the DMP3 being MUCH less expensive and all. I was only basing the results on the first example - I've never heard the DMP3 before. Funny how they sounded exactly opposite this time.
The main reason I liked the DMP3 is that it sounded clear and pleasant without the harshness usually associated with acoustic guitar. And since I primarily record acoustic instruments, I run from this "harshness" like a vampire runs from the sun! The last thing I want my listeners to do is become fatigued, and they are all to quick to let me know it when they are. The RNP was just less-pleasant (not unpleasant, though) in this example.
But this is only one small slice of the pie. The RNP may rule on certain vocals, drum overheads, etc... I'm sure Dot will reveal more on this in the up-coming Listening Sessions (he mentioned he was getting and RNP)
Dot: Maybe you should include a DMP3!
Again, this has been real fun!
