I have over 6 months now and after wiring problems it is finally connected.
I tested with these high-level configuration:
Ibanez Korg DT10 1527 + + + NS2 Boss Line 6 Spider II HD + Boogoe Mesa Thiele 1 * 12
and
Ibanez Marshall EL84 20/20 + 1527 + SE Custom Audio Electronics 3 + 2 * 12 Mesa Boogie Rectifier

Before I test a lot of Microphones Lespaul Gibson, an SG Custom Shop EMG 60 with 3, and Benedetti, EMG 81, EMG 85, EMG-HZ ...
In short it is good and finally the D Activator that sounds the best in bridge with a very good attack and incredible fishing.
Treble singing and less screaming I find that as the EMG 81.
Plus as defined in the bass with a depth of sound would take off the socks!
Accuracy in the Palm-mute exceptional and the overall level of bass, midrange and treble is very balanced.
Brief but good.
This is by far the best sound I've ever had be it rock or heavy metal configuration.

Apart from its clean, as any bridge pickup it sounds too fired, not at all singing ...
But no one is perfect and 88 € at Thomann I do not regret my purchase at all.

To sum up, a microphone that sends the very large dynamic and a great fishing.
A must try

Edit 26/07/2010

After several years of games and guitars with aa different, and what microphone can be improved. Already, it sounds much better on the mahogany as lime (normal)? But I found him all the same faults.
My opinion is based on several heads Amp: Peavey 6505, Laboga M Hector Mesa Roadster, Marshall JVM and JCM, Vox Nightrain (or something like that) ...
The result is always the same, ok the sound is wicked strong and growing, but it does not really have personality and breath even after rewiring and new knob. Also accuracy can be improved in the low to very large rods (70 Si).
Always better than EMG for me and still no crillards as his last.
Tried this microphone, it is very good, but this is not the top FOR ME, maybe you do.

So voila, I now eyeing towards SD Blackout.
