how come it seems the original beta 57's sell for quite a bit more then the beta 57a's on ebay? better or preferable sound quality? they have different grille and internally different transformer i believe... but if the old design is more desirable, any chance shure might reissue the originals?

the original's hypercardioid, and I think the new one's supercardioid- the old ones sound a little fatter to me- especially on snare. I notice a difference there

 

 

Hyper and super are 2 names for the same pattern. One may be more or less marketable to one group or another.
