Sorry, I misunderstood and thought that you wanted to know which
microphones looked the least appealing to us _as designed_.


I would have suggested the Sanken CUW-180 stereo microphone, as shown
on page 177 of the Nov. 2004 MIX Magazine, and on Sanken's Web site at
http://www.sanken-mic.com/english/ . Someone should put a sock on that.


How about S/U ratio---sound to ugliness ratio. I would vote for the ol'
RCA Bk5 as the best sounding ugliest mic.---but then sometimes I look
at the Bk5 and see it as looking beautiful. Now that is true love.

a man put some dog **** (ouch..) all over the foam and started
interviewing famous people..
