In the new Tape Op you'll find this mod. Too long to type (I'm slow) but basically you completely remove the transformer. It's suppossed to sound very good. You lose 10db or so but gain low end. They talked about the option of making an external box with your choice of mic transformers of a better or different quality.
What do you think?
I may try it tonite.
Cliff Notes: Boil the body of the mic (only the section holding the transformer) for 5 minutes to loosen the gunk holding the transformer then pull it out & rewire without it. Thats it. You'll have to cut the wires first to separate the mic top/element from the body. DO NOT BOIL THAT.
