Thanks, McKey, for that extra info about the mic placement. I'll try it sometime!
The K2, a tube mic with a continually variable pattern control and large capsule, sounds enough like my Neumann M2 ... |

Interesting!
I am a singing guitarist and I'd like to try this.
Q: What's a K2?
Q: What pattern did you 'dial in"?
Q: I can picture the location of the mic. Where is it pointing?
thanks ... |

Update-
Well, it's been a month or so, and I want to say that these Audio Engine 2 speakers rock! For their size, I cannot imagine better.

Thanks for the pricing for the DAV8. The DAV folks are not answering my email enquirues for price. At all.
I am also looking at this unit: the RME Octamic II.

| I totally agree about the taper of the pots. The same problem occurs with all the earlier Mackie pres, but I had hoped they would have fixed that for their flagship, dedicated Onyx preamp setup. But n ... |

Finally got and tested the Mackie Onyx 800R. I will probably be returning the unit only because the pots are so touchy!
The actual gain markings on the unit are as much as 10db off (when compared t ... |

I myself am not pleased with any 'soft limit' function that is always in place. I saw no way to defeat it.
The tax opportunity is over for '07, but I am still shopping. At this point, I am looking ... |
