All things were as equal as I could make them, other than the preamps.
Can you detect a difference?Â* Do you like one better?

Later, I'll disclose the premps.

It was Two NT1-A's positioned side by side.Â* One went into
a Mackie 1402-VLZ Pro preamp and out the insert into the
line input of a Presonus 1810 inteface.
The second mic went into a preamp of the 1810.
Each was recorded simultaneously onto separate tracks,
then arranged Mackie/Presonus/Mackie/Presonus.
"Side by side" could itself cause a subtle difference.
Better option would have been to use one mic and a mic-splitter. But
that would defeat the point of a mic preamp test ;-/
