Hi all, this is my first post DIYAudio and I'm excited to have discovered a like minded community!
I'm currently working on building the open source first order ambisonic microphone as described here and have been having difficulties sourcing the Primo EM182 (or the equivalent newer EM282) from Primo at a reasonable price point. Micbooster has the 182s for around $35 each after international shipping and taxes, which I'll just go for if I can't find anything else, but I was wondering if anyone knew of any other good capsules or capsule manufacturers for cardioid electret mics meeting similar specs? (size, snr, operating voltage) I already gave Primo a call and they don't seem to want to sell to hobbyist's directly.
Thanks!
