    Vocal / Instrument
    Dynamic.

    OVERALL OPINION

    These pickups are incredible, I use them for a week by repeating, there are two singers, both with the micro and the quality is really good, pay for 30 ca ... there's no photo.

    Report excelllent quality prices, I'm also confirm what I say prdescesseur, it does not hand toy tt it seems to have a real microphone.
    In addition to the kit as a bonus ... what more.

    They are primarily dynamic mics for vocals.
    It seem pretty solid.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use them for several months and I must say I am very impressed because my group and did not have many months budjet for microphones and it was believed that these microphones gave her a not so good but we were very surprised because the sound is very clear voice is really impressive. Of course it's not as though a sm58 but it holds the road well!
    + What I like is obviously the price for the sound quality is very good value for money, there's nothing unpleasant about these mics, I advise those looking for a good sound for a price not high (especially that there are 3 clips and carrying case).

The truth, we were amazed. rendering of the voice and really acceptable, even better, our singer has a small voice, which requires pushing the amp loud enough to cover the battery and the instrument with the shure, but his voice is clear impeccable, as if a preamp was connected to it ...
    I score above microphone singing but ... but not only, it was used for the recovery of instruments for the models because no budget to invest in micro ADEQUATE ... New surprise, the record is more than satisfactory for both guitars, basses, and for the battery!

    In short, at 30 € uros the three most micro clamps over suitcase, it's really interesting.
    We made this choice and we do not regret it at all! we do it again without problems!

    Microphone for sound recording and singing.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 6 months.
    At first, I'd buy it because I had a microphone and my old band had two singers. Doing a little animation in my spare time, I thought it would be a worthwhile investment. Well I'm definitely not disappointed! These pickups are perfect for their prices, the sounds are clear, even if there is a slight tendency to refer more serious but at the price (10 euros one or less with the clip and carrying case) we will not complain !
    So very good choice if you are not wealthy or you want to equip a studio to rehearse.

    Obviously this is not a SM58. If one is demanding it is better to XM1800S the choirs Reserved. But for concerts or RPTES o o moves and has the hardware suffer these mics are excellent. It is the middle range of Shure (such PG58, PG48 and better than) the price of three low-end microphones trs. In my opinion the quality-price ratio is unbeatable

    PS: the microphones still alive four years APRS trs abuse (punk concerts flat out). 1 hit by a collgue indlicat (a fan of Behringer?) And two other cabosss but always attack.

    Trs relevant toms on 10 14 '. From 16 ', go on plutt ddi bassdrum microphone (kick drum mic or static).

    Multiple records effectus. Amme a drummer's position E604 in his "box" of a cot XM1800S. The SM57 is a drag on high The definition of the medium but dropped the case on the bottom mdium and serious. It's really impressive in terms of price. If so, try and see (with good Obviously pramplis).

    Conclusion? I gave up buying other microphones toms, as j'apprcie their sound.

    Purchased 30 Euros with three claws and the briefcase, they are unbeatable 10 euros per pice.

    Edict of 09/08/09: back from a recording session, again in test, they have to t prfrs sm57, more medium and a bit "hard". The Berhinger deliver sound "acoustic" means more skin vibrate qu'tre type. The sound is round and harmonics out trs well (see be too low for sure). The output level is excellent and they are trs "dynamic". In short, with pramplis of quality I do not see competition (SM57, E604 ...) for a natural sound, at least DPA ... I assume, that the microphone 10 euros, you can call me a fool. Made a blind test ...

    Cardioid dynamic microphone for voice. On / Off switch. Carrying case.

    OVERALL OPINION

    They are hardy and worth the entry level Shure.

    I use them for a week with karaoke and for the price, I do not open. It is largely enough to use as I did (or rather that its use by clients if you know what I mean ...).

    At this price, one would expect of toys ... it is nothing. These microphones are generally neutral with a lightweight bass boost makes everything enjoyable. Their dynamic is impressive for a product of this price. Not quite an SM58 but better than the PG48 and 58 costing four times as much! Utiliss to dub the choirs, or as a vocal microphone booster is frankly well. Before a guitar amp, it's okay too trs. XM1800S These are not too sensitive to feedback and being protected properly against the "plops". I will not speculate on their three or four APRS Resistors falls on the floor but ... In fact it is the type of micro "do everything" the essential range of amateur band but srieux. A 13 euro pice, no reason to deprive yourself.
    I regret not even have bought before.

    Pack of 3 microphones cardioid dynamic type for voice and instrument

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use these mics for the sound of my acoustic drums (while waiting for better), I will test soon to singing and guitar amp. A Premire view, the microphones seem solid, quite heavy, we see that it's not toys.

    For the drums, the sound is not bad, I used one for the bass drum and 2 overhead which take the rest.

    What I can say is that the overall sound is okay plutt rglages After a few hours.

    In particular the sound of TOMS and the Snare, which is simply amazing! I can not believe, attack the CC ets much banging and the sound of the toms are reproduced perfectly! 10 microphones for the unit …

    In contrast to the bass drum and cymbals is worse, but hey, it was worth the money.

    So I think later use these only three microphones for my 3 toms seen that the rendering is excellent, and purchase additional microphones for the rest.

    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.

    Updated February 2011:
    The singer had forgotten his microphone so, I bought one of these micro behringer two bullets to replace an excellent Shure Beta 58. And although he did not blush behringer, it takes pretty good for the price. A bit brighter than the Shure (too high) and lack of bass, but it did the trick for troubleshooting.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I the boards for quite some time. And for now I must say it was using just a microphone to the animation for shows on an old sound. But they were used for 2 weekends to record our demo 7 titles. Excellent value for money.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have this set of 3 pickups for almost two years I think. Rather he take the road well, I must say. The sound is okay for a product at that price. Afterwards, if you want something more precise, it is better to turn to a more expensive microphone. But for once, have 3 microphones correct is pretty good in need.
    Personally, I bought them in a panic on the eve of a "concert" in a mate (which have not occurred). The problem is there at the time I knew absolutely nothing in terms of gear and price range. So I naively bought this pack of micro music store in the corner. The seller tells me the price (120 €) and offers me a discount for not paying after all "that" 80 €. It's there now 2 or 3 months that I fall on the same lot this time about thirty euros. I'll admit that I could not help but shed a tear filled with hatred of rage against the seller who sold me these pickups for almost three times their price (especially since he wanted me to sell even more expensive! ).
    In short, it was my little personal note. To return to the microphones themselves, I've used both live and repeat that it goes pretty well.
    Before I had a Power Acoustics I do not even remember the model. I quickly sold because I very quickly acquired the Behringer (3 pickups were more than sufficient). I was able to quickly test a Shure SM 58 live (much better), and I just bought a Beta 58A (even better!) I quickly tested. I obviously prefer the Beta 58A (I also probably would table a notice in the coming months).
    What I love about XM1800S is its robustness, the on / off button and versatility.
    For cons, I found a major problem is a high sensitivity to feedback. But this may be due to the volume that is played with the group. When the drummer taps as a nag, others go up and I am quickly drowned ...
    The quality / price is more than interesting. At a rate of about 10 € the microphone is more than a case is an offer!
    I do not regret my choice if it is money that I put. These microphones have been of invaluable assistance on many occasions and it was two wonderful years of ups and downs that I learned to appreciate their company.
    I recommend this pack to anyone who wants a set of microphones to repeat as for the live.
