Though I use the quite often, I have never really thought of making microphones as an art. though I suppose just as a musical instrument maker fuses art and science in their creation of a unique musical device, microphones are very much the same way, and acre just as carefully crafted in a small workshop. I would be curious to hear these microphpnes in comparison to a Shure or Sennheiser which are not cheap, but much more prevalent all over this industry.
