Drum Mic OH Suggestions for a 4 mic set up.. (Glyn Johns Style)

Hey everyone,

looking for a pair of decent over head mics for my recording set up. Right now im looking at a 4 mic Glyn Johns/Recorderman type set up for some basic demo and soundtrack work. I've only just started recording drums after a few years of recording only guitars for my demo work so my plan is to start out with a 4 mic set up and eventually upgrade and grow from there.

right now i've got an sm57 on the snare and an akg d112 for the kick drum. Now i need 2 decent OH (side and above the snare) mics for the rest of set up. I have heard that large condensers are better for this application but I've read countless suggestions but am kind of lost on which ones to actually get.

Im recording mostly indie rock type drums and want something with a nice open sound. Clean and really huge sounding. (dont know if i could get anymore cliche with that). Looking at about a 300$ish New budget for each mic but don't mind spending a little more depending on quality.

any suggestions? BTW im posting this in a few other forums, but thought i would get everyones take on the situation.

thanks!

btw.. first time posting on GS, but im a harmony central regular. If you think id have better luck posting this in a different section please let me know. howdy
