OVERALL OPINION

I use it for more than a year, he reminds me a little Neumann KMS 104 in its color:

Pretty well rounded bass but with a slightly "tight" it does not bleed too and pretty clear highs, mids are a little behind (a little lack of heat anyway) so I use it with a preamp tube (Ivory 5050). I especially like the female vocals pretty quiet (variety, jazz)


on paper they say that the mic can take a lot of SPL, but I'm not convinced, I've yelled in it tends to dislike. So I did not even try to put it on percussion and stuff too strong

I tried it on an acoustic, it's not bad, but the result had nothing to do with the true sound of the guitar, the limit it could serve as a complement to a microphone a little more neutral, treble crystals are beautiful on vocals, but it should not be abused I think.

I tried a lot of condenser mics (Rode, Shure, Neumann, Prodipe, Audio Technica ...). It really is the way it is robust and reliable, it is not better or worse than others in the same price range

The value for money is not bad, I think it is not a microphone to do everything, so you have to try before you buy, but it is very good in addition to more neutral microphones, or with a bit more midrange ..

I did not pay it to me as a gift, with the experience I do not know, it's a bit expensive for what little I use, but I'm glad in some occasions.
