I like 2 AR 441 and a AMT MP40. The ARs for power and the AMT to equalize. In the end it is what you hear and how you turn the knobs or place the sliders. I've heard a single cheapo Barcus Berry pickup in a nine foot sound good.

  Hello to all;

  I am frequently asked my opinion on microphones for pianos. I missed the class in Kansas City. I have been going through the archives till I'm crosseyed . (by the way, is there a way to search using a key word or phrase? Am I being a dope again? )

  So on behalf of my university and a new concert hall in town can your collective wisdom enlighten, advise, relate your experiences with mics for pianos?

  Thanks for any & all info. Nancy Salmon RPT

  PS The recent threads, esp. Baldwin accujust, have been so helpful. I care for  several noisy old baldwin D's here and have tried many things.Thanks
