I'm astonished by the claim that the Decca Tree "is the most commonly used spaced-pair technique." First of all, no arrangement of three microphones is a spaced pair! But even among setups of spaced main microphones, is it really used more often than ordinary spaced omnis (A/B), or three-microphone setups in which the center microphone is not set forward from the main left and right microphones? I doubt that very much.

If no one can document this claim, I suggest that it be struck or at least put into a context in which it is minimally plausible. DSatz 15:17, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
