Good morning, I have the opportunity to purchase either the Siemens 2 mica or 3 mica version's of 12at7's (matched pair's, one to use, one as a spare). My quandry is this, the seller say's the 3 mica sounded as if he were listening to a good hi-fi and the 2 mica sounded as if the musicians were in the room with him. Since I can't A/B them in the SP-8 MkII, I have the quandry. The piece of equipment he based his listening opinion on was/is a Jolida 502, if memory serves me correctly. I'm looking for a little guidance here, I guess.
Thanks,
Chris
