If your OH's are phasing, maybe try a technique like XY or Blumlein (2 fig-8 mic's in XY) or M-S. After trying these, I don't see the need to take a chance on a spaced pair. For room mics on a guitar cab or something, try delaying the distant mic 20-30 ms if they start to phase. If you compress with...
