Natural voice and intelligibility

Rodney,

I read your posts but I am not really sure what you accomplished in your microphone test. Were you trying to find the mic that sounded the most like your natural voice, or were you going for intelligibility ?
I have been a recording engineer for years, and own my own studio.  It is 
not uncommon to try several microphones of the same type and find slight 
differences in the frequency response.  If these two mics have the same 
element, you might end up back where you started.
If the mic is unidirectional, proximity effect will come into play, as well 
as how the capsule is vented, mounted, whether or not there is a pop filter 
under the screen, etc.  Even the length of the coaxial mic cable can add 
capacitance to an unbalanced mic circuit.
If you are going for intelligibility, try having a qso and keep reducing 
power until you can barely be heard, then try both mics.
