Best value:
Excellent
everything has already been said: a static large membrane
OVERALL OPINION
It must be a year since I have been using it. Bought new less than 150 euros, I use it for vocals in the studio and for guitar amplifiers, connected to a tube preamp SPL. The price / quality ratio is excellent. This mic has a lot of momentum, does not blow. on the other hand, there must be impeccable room acoustics, because it will impreigne the microphone, even "glued" to the membrane.
In terms of sound color, it's all subjective, but here I'm not a big fan, at least on my voice: I find the sound too aggressive, too cold for my taste. I finally arrive at more satisfactory results with a good dynamic hypercardioid! With experience, I will not make this choice again: I moved into the AKG Perception series, which I have a small-diaphragm model for drums and gives great results, for one low price.
