I like the 4051s for overheads in a lot of situations. I find that they have a tendency to overload on loud snare drums (and toms, where they would also sound great otherwise), but sound excellent for brush playing. Have you had any overload issues with them on snare?

love the 141 on snare. esp. with brushes.

for heavier stuff, nothing beats the senn. 441 in my opinion.
