WM-60/61 Final Input Please


 

No, I haven't eliminated anything as far as directional or size. Someone was
interested in better 55's, others in 1/2", etc. All are interesting.

I must focus on getting one thing at a time done, or nothing will happen. Just
made some 60 equals, but people are saying that 61 is much preferred.

I think 3 pads, and the best FET that will fit.

I am hearing no FET and fooling with a 6mm RF mic won't help noise, but will
help LF, which seems flat anyway... so no non FET version

The remaining question I am aware of is the hole size, normal, bigger or
none. I am hearing people that have experimented with making the hole
bigger, who have actually tested the results find no improvement and in fact
degradation of the low end. One guy was saying the cavity resonates at
extremely high SPL's, (over 120?) That's not a problem for me, anyone else?

ALSO, part of the purpose of the hole and the metal around it is to protect the
membrane, which DOES need protection.

I WANT FINAL INPUT AND THOUGHTS, PLEASE

61 better starting point than 60?

3 pad w/ best FET available? Any preferences on FET #? Sanyo 202 OK?
NEC 1109-J34 or J36? Anything else?

Bigger omni next, but first let's finish this one. I can fit a 2SK118 in a 9.7mm
and should be able to tweak 65 S/N out of it, without too much sweat. We
shall see.
