Got them from The Sound Professionals, and their service was really great, they downpriced the already low-priced deal by not charging me for shipment at all. I live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Anyway, I can recommend those mikes to anyone, even though they are omni-directional, I end up using them for almost ANY source these days, I even "DJ" with them, because they sound so perfect all the way. Very low noise, very good dynamics, warm and heavy reality-conformed low, as well as that luxurious audio-technica amount of highs.
Thanks for that - Always good to get advice from users of other types of mics.

If anyone else has stuff to add, don't be shy. Like I've said before, someone really ought to do up a 3xx series version of this, or at least list the main differences, just to help the rest of the 3 series folks out should they need steered in the right direction...
