I used to work for Sennheiser, and as I recall, their mics in most cases actually do not have significant response beyond 22 kHz. Even among the RF condenser mics, all but the MKH 816 shotgun have sharply falling response at 20 kHz (the MKH 816 actually has a dip at 15 kHz and rising response at 20 kHz).A couple times there I got calls from guys who insisted that a good mic should have response down to 0 Hz. I had to gently point out that the mic would have to also include a barometer to do that. ;^)
