12.7mm is 1/2". We can look at that. We can make anything makeable,
HOWEVER 6mm or 9.7mm is what we run all day, every day. That is where it
is realtively easy to slip in something special or different, like no FET, a
different FET, different membranes, spacers, tensions, etc.
What you have to realize here is that there are maybe 1,000 of you guys
doing very interesting and creative things with SMALL quantities of ECM's
Personally, I'm fascinated with this. It's my hobby as well as my day job. My
wife says I have no life outside of those little f-in silver cans ;-)
I can't make a dozen of this and a dozen of that. I need to make a minimum of
10,000 of something and know that eventually they will be consumed.
So we need to go for the highest usage DIY capsules and those are the 60/
61. We need to narrow down what is wanted in an off the shelf replacement
for them.

everyone can agree on what such a device ought to be, I'll run some, pass

and you guys can see what you think.
What an interesting offer! Personally I'd be interested in
some with larger diaphragms, say 1/2", to increase the SNR
above the molecular shot noise and in directional models of
the same, particularly a cardiod and a figure 8.
