Geoff,

Yep, "we" did go through that a few years ago at length,

When I said "we", I was referring to John/BXO and I (as in replying to his message). John, Otis, and someone else, forget now who it was... Steve/K5LTK, perhaps, ordered some D-104 cartridges. In fact, I think they were the JT-30 replacement crystal cartridges, which have a very similar sound to them, if not a bit 'richer'.

With the right amount of EQ, any microphone can be made to sound -at least- acceptable on the air.

John, in particular, came up with an RC network, incorporating some inverse feed-back on a 12AX7 mic preamp that flattens out the audio response on most any crystal element mic (like a D-104 or JT-30, etc...)
