All user reviews for the The T.bone MB85 Beta

- Balanced output on XLR.
- Micro stage dynamic.
- Aspect serious and pro
- Excellent sound quality (the colder, less blur in low than a Shure SM58)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 months.
The specifics I like most are pro appearance and the "natural" that results from a recording.
I tried a number of models before buying: the Shure SM58 and BETA58 and,
Behringer XM8500 on the MB45 and MB85 in the same brand.
The quality / price ratio should be one of the best on the market.
Of course I would do this choice!

Micro-dynamic cardioid
50Hz-17kHz-
-Mainly for singing
-Comes in a plastic housing and a clamp
-Copy of Shure Beta 58 (SM58 corresponds to that of MB85)
- 38
Guarantee 3 years
- 9 / 10 for the clamp from Shure ... But for the price ..

OVERALL OPINION

I ran a test with 4 micro aprem this: SM58, Beta 58A, T.bone MB78, MB85 and our beta!
The Shure Beta 58a remains at the top of this classification level quality sound / solid. The sound of Dfine MB78 is normal for a static but more fragile, therefore it is deprecated for our dear singers metallic)! The output level is also more lev .. Feedback Beware! The SM58 is over now! With its quality and some default!

Now come to our star the MB85! And good for 38! This mic is really thundering! Certainly less bass (and blur ..) that the SM58 but the sound is more Dfine. Look a little less robust than Shure but this price rise as a park with an SM58 or Beta 58 (see both!) And the rest in MB85.

PERIOD In a crisis, not hsiter on the purchase of this microphone!

OVERALL OPINION

Everything is already said I'm posting this comment to inform you that it has been 2 years since I have one and ... NOT A PET! Yet he saw all the colors (given the price, I decided that he would break after a year and I probably will redeem, or SM58 if I take a break too quickly).

Well I even decided in the end I set my mic swing violently to the ground and he suffered every live (covered with clay, sweat and spit ...) BUT IT TOOK. It still works perfectly, I thought he had ended up having a concern last month, but in fact it was my XLR cable that had just let go.

I bought a Neumann microphone KMS105 for high-end (which I'll take care now), it is much more accurate and its a lot clearer, but I enjoyed it as much t.bone and I hesitate not the resort to mark dates in a smaller more intimate!

A dynamic singing on stage.

OVERALL OPINION

For two or three years I've used it several times and all sorts of other dynamic mics, and I bought 3 or 4.

In two words, one can say that much like the Beta 58, SM 58 and also,
it outperforms. I could compare these two Shure and it seems that the Beta 58 has a "grain" a little better, but for the price and usage
on stage is a good deal of time.
Especially do not buy one instead of t.bone cheaper, he did not arrive
ankle.

I put 10/10 because I know of nothing better to under 150 €, for the cons
Above there is a lot better.

For singing

OVERALL OPINION

I've had about 1 year
I do animation, wedding anniversary, family celebrations and Karaoke
I tried several mics including Shure SM58 and is looking at the reviews here that I decided to buy one and take it to help out, today is the SM58 has been relegated to the button
What I like most except the price is the clarity of voice and the fact that it hangs very little feedback, it must be done on purpose, well settled, I can get close to one meter Pregnant with no grip
Exceptional value for money and I do not work at Thomann
I certainly would do that choice before moving on more upscale

OVERALL OPINION

Like "espelette.peppe" said above, everything has been said about the technical features ... however, "espelette.peppe" seems to be devoid of ears, unless he bump for Shure, or both micro ... This is absolutely perfect, given its price ... I've compared it to the SM58, both connected to a 01V, and headphones. Result, more finesse for the T-bone, I vote with my shots, for models on stage, I fitted a vocal group that I lead and Sound, is nickel ... and there must to express for the feedback, I use it for two or three years, and it works perfectly ... but I take care as if it was a microphone to a brick. In addition, it comes in a super hard plastic box, lined with a good foam, which is not the case of a SM58.Et for the price, well, the Chinese working there for not too expensive This explains the 39 € ... it's the only fault I can make it ...

I used to have a Shure SM57 for trumpet and a bugle for pop and jazz. I forgot my mic when I went to a rehearsal so I used the T-Bone MB85.

OVERALL OPINION

I was impressed by the highs! No distortion and clear sound, even at 50 cm. It was the same with vocals. So I ask myself why is there such a big difference in price compared to the SM58 or SM57... You pay for the brand! So I bought this mic and I recommend it! The only question is: will it withstand the test of time...
Very good value for money. It looks like the SM58: almost same weight, same sturdiness (or so it seems). Very good lows and highs compared with a SM57, which tend to sound a bit dull. Better than a replacement mic...
