    It's a pretty versatile dynamic microphone.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use them for 2 years, I like him because they are inexpensive, versatile (drums, vocals).
    I even made up a beta 58, which gave me a horrible sound on a man's voice.
    I have 6 and it easily troubleshoot when all other mics (Shure, Sennheiser, ...) are used.

    Perfectly satisfied!

    Very good mic for vocals, which can rival with the SM58 (oh, yes!!)
    You can also record instruments with it (I have used it to record a guitar with a 4x12 cab, snare drums and hi-hats), but you shouldn't expect to much from it because it isn't meant for that!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had it for eight years now, and haven't had a single issue.
    Give it a try, it only costs $40 and the result is not bad at all.
    You are still here?? Go get it now!!

    Average, but given the price I wouldn't complain!

    All-purpose mics, with not too much frequency range, no coloration, nor a high price tag.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had these mics for years without a single problem. They are solid, and although not as good as the sennheiser (sp?) or shure that I commonly use, when I need an extra mic on stage, I'm always happy to have them with me.
    Unbeatable value for money!

    Nice mic

    Dynamic - Super cardioid - 80Hz 15KHz - -52dBV - 600 Ω

    OVERALL OPINION

    I needed an all-purpose mic (by no means a professional one)
    Computer sound input, diverse and varied recordings.
    I am willing to do some tests with people in my region to see how it does in terms of quality.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought the Behringer XM 1800 S three-mic set several years ago because I had no money. I don't regret having bought them. Granted, they are not professional studio microphones, but for the price...

    Dynamic mic for live speech or vocal applications.

    OVERALL OPINION

    When the first one came out, a friend of mine who does sound for big conferences put several on stage and asked me what I thought about them. We found them quite all right.

    So I bought it and have used for several years the 3 different Behringer dynamic mics (XM8500, XM2000S and XM1800S) as they were made available.

    To my ear, there's no difference between these 3 mics. They all have the same frequency response curve.

    I have personally never liked the sound of the Shure SM58 and I prefer the Behringers.

    You will certainly not get the same durability as with Shure. Although...

    I have personally never liked the sound of the Shure SM58 and I prefer the Behringers.

    You will certainly not get the same durability as with Shure. Although...
    From my 8 Behringer dynamic mics, 2 have had problems with the capsule.
    In one of them, both cables were damaged and the mic ended up in the trash can (together with an SM58).
    The other one sounded like a baby rattle. A bit of cyanocrylate to glue the grille that protects the grille and all was good again.

    Given their price, it would be a pity not to take advantage of it.

    I then switched to a Shure Beta58, and then a Beta87. The difference is clear, but it costs from 10 to 20 times more.

    Dynamic vocal mic

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had them for three years.
    I bought them for karaoke, I wouldn't let the clients touch my Sennheiser mics.
    I paid $40 for the three, their value for money is truly excellent, they come with mic clips and transport case.
    Don't use them with professional singers, though, they might be disappointed, but for karaoke or rental...

    Set of three dynamic microphones for vocals with on/off switch.
    They come together with mic clips inside a padded plastic case.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Very practical set of mics you can get very cheap at Thomann.

    I've used them for 7 months with a blues-rock group (in the "shout as loud as you can" style, so clarity and perfection are not the main priority).

    No issues so far: No cut-offs, nor feedbacks, neither in rehearsal rooms nor in concert halls (mainly small halls with the speakers relatively near).

    The manufacturing quality and packaging are more than fine, considering the price.

    With such a price there's probably no other product that can even compete with them! That …

    With such a price there's probably no other product that can even compete with them! That said, I still have to see how they age, because you can't really tell after only 7 months. But that's not too bad: You get 3 mics in the box and for less than what you'd pay for only one of any other brand!

    This set is perfect when you are on a budget and need extra mics, to start out or for vocal styles that don't need too much precision!

    Set of 3 dynamic mics for vocals (but only that)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had this mics for several years. Considering their price, the natural prejudice is to think they are crap.
    When I used a "real" mic (Neumann KMS105) that costs $650 and gets accolades from everyone here, I was surprised (stunned) to realize that the poor Berhinger that costs $15 a piece can stand up and is even better than the Neumann.

    I am not a pro nor an engineer, but my ears tell me that these Behringer are awesome and their value for money is jaw-dropping. I haven't been able to check whether it creates feedback on stage.

    What did I learn from this? I'll pass on the Neumann and take "precious" care of…

    In my view the report quality price is unbeatable. Besides, I am sci by that mark, I who have no budget for the high end, I have the same brand amp, two speakers and a 200W TBOX table mix b. facing the gear we re insufficient, cutter in FTEs to school, I had to invest a minimum so that the children's choirs are highlighted and the guitar lctro get along.

    I think I Rasht if needed, solid, cheap and good.

    I tried taking acoustic guitar amp guitar, singing and making battery. A little less engaging than the 8500 song, but should not quibble, my studio (Zoom MRS-2) does not really make the difference, except to make two identical tracks. In this config, the SM57 will not give any more (I dare not say anything), anything for the snare and the amp makes it good.
    In short, three microphones for the price ... say anything. It's been 12 microphones for the price of a Shure. The pros do not care but the musicians in the evening as I apprcient.
    Note: For me, it's 9 / 10 given the price and rsultat sharp but users will probably find fault with.

    Without being micro studio or scne the XM1800S S trs well suited for basic uses. Their use must be oriented plutt singing or speech, but not for instruments. Be careful, the wind noise for use or collection outdoor singer a bit noisy filter "anti pops" trs not effective.

    OVERALL OPINION

    By collection's outdoor show at cons in case of rain, or with small groups of friendly hardware (tap on the head of the microphone with your hands.) You can always say that you do not risk the 50 uros rating as the set of 3.
