Fascinating MS

Decoded MS and coincident cardioids are mathematically identical and they
are very close to interchangeable with top-grade microphones. As you get
to cheaper microphones that are less flat off-axis, the X-Y configuration
becomes more of an issue since the center of the soundstage is off-axis on
both mikes.
In other words, coincident XY is the same as MS with the M and S about the
same gain, and also the XY can be converted back to an exactly equivalent MS
pair that can be manipulated just as if the original were MS (?).
