UA SP-1 Microphone vs Neumann KM84 & AKG C451 - In-Depth Comparison & Testing

In-depth testing against the much-loved Neumann KM84/85 and AKG C451. Is this $200 mic a worthy competitor to the KM84 and C451? I perform typical same-take comparisons with multiple mics and conduct precisely controlled, measured testing to properly compare them!
