“This stereo microphone is characterized by a very neutral image, clean open mids, defined, firm depths and a very physical, catchy sound. If anything, there is only a minimal tendency to warmth and a strong presence (in the sense of signal presence)…The acoustic guitar and the violin were very vividly and naturally reproduced, so that you can imagine the V44S as a natural-sounding main microphone very well… The V44S is a very honest…A real catch!”
