Why is RODE NT4 (stereo) priced more than the matched pair of NT5?
The capsules in the RODE NT4 and NT5 have identical specs, and every review I've seen says that the matched pair of NT5s, when mounted for coincident stereo recording sound identical to the NT4.
So why is the NT4 priced 25% more than the NT5 Pair?

Budget Microphones for Recording Acoustic Guitars
I don't have much of a budget but I want something better or rather more suited than the AT-3035 which I use for vocals. I hear good things about the SM-57 (my budget is about the cost of one, or $100) but not sure if that extends to Micing an acoustic guitar. I'd like to blend my pickup with it to get a nice mix of a sound.
Equation Audio F20 Microphone mini-review
I recently bought an Equation Audio F20 Mic on the adice of a friend in Nashville, TN. I wanted something a bit better for acoustic guitar, for $600 or less, preferably less. I found a couple used ones for $250 each. Have to say, I really like the mic.

Hi,
I've been researching on microphone preamps quite a bit, and wondering whether upgrading to dedicated outboard preamps would really help the sound quality. It can be quite a heavy investment, so I'd like to be really sure before taking the plunge.

Guitar amp micing
Hi guys!
A few days ago I heard a engineer saying that the best way to record the guitar amp is putting the cabinet (speaker) up something like a rack, chair, etc.
Is it really true?
Why?
Is there some acoustic problem on this?
Thanks everyone, and sorry for my english.
Hugs
Davi
