    Microphone Set-up for Audio System Recordings

    Hi Ron: I I found that using dual mics creates a very unusual soundstage unlike what we hear at the seated listening position. Therefore, the best microphone for the situation that we actually use at sound insight is the Shure MV 88+ microphone. This microphone is a true stereo microphone that...
