OVERALL OPINION

Construction is mtal, the whole is robust and trs was a pleasure ...

In sound is the slap: pchu equilibrated but (it is enjoyable even without equalization). Excellent prsence ...

It is not the king of versatility (trs rponse typical curve) but it's not a pity:
A bump in the 6 kHz to hear the GC in the mix ', although Submitted pchue well.

This is a microphone for those who want a sound quite "fit in it" (rock, metal ,...) and a microphone is not the taste of a micro prfreront jazzeux that non-equals (RE20 ,...)
It is Designed to get some bass drum sound and it is very well Designed to ...
Who wants a versatile mic, I know if I would recommend ...

on the other hand, to sound the death that kills (trash-metal-death-brutal-core-. ..) coupled a PZM and compression (RULES attack to 15ms), although rgl e. .. Prparez you, was going to hurt!

SHURE prconise also for the low: uh yeah, but ... Ho hum!
You will get the ch *** qualisation able to bring out the bass ***!

on the other hand, there is a little big for big events and some will not accept it (that is what is being said, I never facing this problem t)

Compared to the Sennheiser E602, there's really no contest ...

Compares the AKG D112, let's say I prfre the Beta 52 for its color, its broader and less aggressive.
I do not like the color too AKG, but it's personal.

Compar a PZM is not the same thing ... The PZM is a micro-up (when it is used in a bass drum) for the attacks of thunder.
