hello... i already own a pair of Neumann TLM103s that I like very much...
I
am looking to get another different pair of large diaphragm condensers to
compliment the TLM103s... use mostly for drum room and other all purpose
room stuff.... would like mics this time with multiple switchable
patterns... how about the Neumann U87i or U89i?... how might these be for
drum room (loud rock often), and how different are they sonically from
TLM103s?... what about other Neumanns such as the TLM193, 170, but my
guess
is that all the TLM series neumann mics may have very similar sonic
characteristics and I already have the TLM103s... and what about the AKG
414
TLII?... all input appreciated -j

You've already got the most versatile Neumann LDC they make, so unless
you're buying your 4th or 5th LDC, I'd stick to the more versatile ones from
other companies.

nu unh! The TLM 127 is something to be considered.
