I already had the t.bone Ovid System CC100 and this one looked just as a better version of it. I did not look at its pictures carefully and when it arrived, it was quite a surprise - this microphone is much bigger than the CC100. Look at the picture again and compare the size of the mic with the size of the connector. The tube of the mic has about 25 mm in diameter and is about 70 mm long! It is also heavier, but that is a positive - in comparison with CC100 it seems to be less sensitive to the noise delivered through the holder. I am using it for flamenco guitar, bought one bundled with the CC200GH (Guitar Holder), which is much better than the holder for CC100, but also much heavier. So far I have made just some comparison recording of CC100, CC200 and studio condenser mic, and the sound quality of CC200 seems to be very good, definitely better than CC100.
