Audix F6

Should the output level of an Audix F6 be lower than the output of an RE20? Mine is, and it doesn't seem right. I just
got it, so I have nothing to compare it with.

From the blurb:

"USER TIPS: The f6 is designed with low output in order to compensate
for instruments having very high sound pressure levels. "

If it's anything like my D6, then it'll be a good mic !

Here are comparisons. The F6 is the lowest of this bunch.

The F6 has a sensitivity of 1.2mV/Pascal, the RE20 1.5mV/Pascal and the SM57 1.6mV/Pascal
