The orignal Earthworks measurement style mics are a little on the noisy

I had an SR 78 which was unusable as a spot mic in classical recordings
- simply too noisy for the purpose, where you'd not place it all that
close to the source. Sold it to a studio, they seem to be happy with it.
Sure it works well in front of a guitar amp.
