Anybody else have any experience with these? I picked up a Vienna super cheap and I've liked what I've heard so far. It does have a bit of that high frequency thing that I associate with cheapo large diapraghm condensors, but it's not harsh- just a bit airy. I have an airy voice anyway and I found tahat with about 4 tracks of my backgrounds and this mic, it started to sound a bit like "I'm Not In Love" by 10cc. That's good, though, it kept me from adding too many backing vocals. It does have some pretty good body as well, so a little EQing can sort out too much high end.
Anybody else have any thoughts on these? I've only used it on voice and piano so far.

There is a nice, detailed review of those ADK Hamburg/Vienna mics over at Studio Reviews. Haven't tried them myself.

Yep, that's the review that convinced me that it was worth getting one. I just haven't found anyone with any experience or opinions on them- which is a little curious. I've also not come across any other reviews anywhere and there's very little info on them anywhere online. Maybe it's just that that market is so jammed with options (Chinese made large diapraghm condensees in the $150- $300 range) that the ADKs haven't made their mark.
