Might I ask what an 11,000 dollar mic does that another mic doesn't do?

a useless tool . . .
Not the best analogy . . . or it is? There are Earthbound optics far superior to Hubble--indeed, since the launch of Hubble, the advent of adaptive computer-controlled optics has allowed ground-based observatories to start to rival Hubble. And of course, Hubble's optics were (in)famously flawed on manufacture, and required a Shuttle mission to mount "glasses" to fix them.
Hubble is unique for a single reason only: it's in the right place--space--above the atmosphere that refracts and obscures light. And so an $11K mic in the wrong place is a useless tool . . .
When this thread started almost five years ago, the Carson mic hadn't been sold
I don't think we've mentioned the Simpson microphone yet:
Simpson High Resolution Microphones
About $15K each . . .
They used to be about $1,200 for the pair. The dollar must have really lost it's value.
