For those of you considering the Lyxpro SDPC mics, you may want to consider this anecdotal information.
I did a comparison of these two micophones a while back (http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthrea...E-20-Shure-SM-7-SennHeiser-MKH-415-Tram-TR-50). I thought they compared favorably. I recently was on a week long shoot with a wide variety of indoor and outdoor situations. I used the Lyxpro indoors to see how it would perform. In one room, there was electronic interference coming in. We turned off all cell phones, fluorescents, dimmers, and the like to no avail. It was loud and ruined a take. I switched to the Octava. It had the same noise, but way down near the noise floor and only audible during silence. It could have been used if necessary. There was a significant difference in susceptibility between the mics. I then switched to the Sennheiser MKH-415 shotgun. The noise was gone.
It left me less impressed with the Lyxpro mics. They performed just fine in the other rooms, but having it succumb so loudly to some interference put them lower on the shelf than my other options.
