  Anonymous 's review "If you need a lot of cheap, acceptable mics FAST..."

  Characteristics

  *Microphones are very subjective. Some microphones that work for some brilliantly may be disastrous on others. It is therefore important to understand the context in which this review is written and take it with a grain of salt, like all reviews on microphones should be treated.*
  
  
  
  Let's be realistic. I'm not even going to criticize the quality of Behringer just because I know it's a cheaper set of microphones. I'm going to simply go off of what I have observed as a performer, and it is this:
  
  
  
  These microphones are not great, but they are cheap, reliable workhorses that will work in a total pinch. Other reviews do mention the mic was a bit too bright and with a lack of bass, but I find that while these are true, there is a crippling 'dullness' that plagues the tone.
  
  
  
  It's nothing one would notice when listening to it on its own, but pair it up against the standard SM58 and you'll realize that even if the SM58 does have a bit of a reputation for being honky in the midrange and dull sometimes, the XM1800s makes the SM58 seem sharper than a katana.
  
  
  
  It's like doing a mix of Feeling Good, accepting it, then going on YouTube and listening to any one of the other nine million famous people to ever do it. Then you realize your mix sounds absolutely dull! Oh. Wait. Sorry, I was just moaning about something I did a few months ago.

  Overall Opinion

  At any rate, the XM1800s is okay in a pinch, but I would never use it in the same show as any well-respected industry-accepting microphone like the Shure SM58. It would just sound embarrassing. So I'll say this: if you're going to use this microphone don't use it alongside anything better. As long as you adhere to this rule, the XM1800s can take you quite a long way.
  
  
  
  But if you can get 3 mics for $30, you could be doing a LOT worse.

  Binuz's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Perfectly satisfied!"

  Characteristics

  Very good microphone singing little carefree compete with SM58 (yes!)
  
  Taken for instruments, it is possible (I use it for taking guitar speaker output 4 * 12, or for cash taken Calire charley battery), do not ask him too much either but it does the job well!

  Overall Opinion

  I have this product for 8 years, and now RAS.
  
  Rush you get for € 30 should not deprive themselves and the result is really not bad.
  
  Are you still there?? No, but they said go for it go!

  pmaillot's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " average but nothing to complain for the price!"

  Characteristics

  Mics "pass" without too much bandwidth, without too much color, not too pricetag attached ...

  Overall Opinion

  I have these mics for years, never had a problem. They are solid, albeit less good than the senheizer (sp?) Or shure that I also use, but frankly when you need a microphone on stage more, I'm happy to find them.
  
  Report "quality" (strength) / price!

  à Chaud's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Cheap, it was well worth the money"

  Characteristics

  Dynamic microphone for speech or singing on stage.

  Overall Opinion

  When it first came out, a friend who sonorisait large gatherings had put several on stage and he asked me what I thought. We find very good.
  
  
  
  So I bought and used for several years 3 models of dynamic microphones Behringer XM8500, XM2000S XM1800S and gradually as they were marketed.
  
  
  
  For me, I do not make difference between these 3 ear microphones. They are also given the same response curve.
  
  
  
  Personally I never liked the sound of Shure SM58 and I prefer the Behringer.
  
  
  
  Sure we will not have the same longevity with Shure. Although ...
  
  On my 8 Behringer dynamic, two had problems bonding in the cell.
  
  For one, the son for two broke mic and went to the trash (same also for SM58).
  
  For another, it was a baby rattle noise. A little cyanoacrylate glue to reattach the grille that protects the membrane and it is gone.
  
  
  
  At the price they are sold, that would be a shame to miss.
  
  
  
  Well, since I switched to Shure Beta58 and the Béta87. It's something else, but it is 10 to 20 times more expensive.

  so_hell's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " very good for the price"

  Characteristics

  Set of three dynamic microphones for vocals with switch on / off.
  
  Everything comes with pliers in a plastic box stuffed with foam.

  Overall Opinion

  Set pickups very cheap bought Thomann.
  
  
  
  Used for 7 months now in blues-rock (in "yell loudly in the microphone" and therefore neither clarity nor the perfection of the 1st song are concerns).
  
  
  
  No worries met: no cuts or feedback detected both in rehearsal venues (mainly small rooms with speakers relatively close).
  
  
  
  Quality manufacturing and packaging are more than correct considering the price of the set.
  
  
  
  Moreover, at that price, there is probably no other product that can match! That said, good aging remains to be seen, because seven months is not easy to get fully appreciate ... But at the same time it is not so bad: there are three microphones in the box and cheaper than other brands only!
  
  
  
  For extra microphones with low budget to begin or for styles that do not require a definition of singing very loyal, this set is perfect!

  DJ Pierre's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Surprisingly good!"

  Characteristics

  Set of 3 dynamic mics for vocals (but not only)

  Overall Opinion

  I these pickups for several years. Considering the price, the prejudice of this logic is that this is crap ...
  
  By ordering a "real" microphone (Neumann KMS105) to € 500 which they said the greatest good on this site, I was surprised (stunned) to see that the poor Berhinger to 10 € / each comparison is even better the Neumann VIP ...
  
  
  
  I'm not a pro nor an engineer, but my ears tell me that non of these non Behringer are great and that therefore their quality / price ratio is explosive. Regarding feedback on stage I have not been able to verify.
  
  
  
  Moral: I refer the Neumann to the fold and hold "treasured" my Behringer.
