hmmm... i was thinking something that utilized an ultra-thin dual diaphram with huge caps, incredibly well-damped body, tranformerless circuitry, perfect rf shielding, internal shockmounting, continuously variable polar pattern dials, -10 db pad, with all the electronics to tolerances of .5%...

ah, yes - and after some quick research i found a few other models that seemed to place even higher -
the horsch rm2j
the korby kat4
the brauner KHE...
these are all sub-10k$ mics
does anyone know of anything so esoteric it costs more than 10K?

Some of the old classics tend to fetch somewhat ridiculous prices, this U47 for example has a starting bid of $9999...
Doesn't beat that Brauner but then that one's a stereo mic.
