Again, I'm willing to bet very, very few people could correctly pick
out the 1 Clone, and the 1 Real, in two blind audio tests.

Close your eyes, and see if you can tell when the real U87 is
used:

Between my currently poor monitoring setup and Youtube's mangling of the
audio, I couldn't tell any difference.

Mainly, I suspect the problem may have been with Youtube's audio
compression or the choice of subject matter. I will happily use Youtbe
to assess a performance, but having done the experiment, no way will I
use it to check audio or video quality on a recording.
