Best value: Excellent
Condenser microphone quite versatile in its way, you can do everything with both live in the studio.

OVERALL OPINION

Used since 2009 and mainly live in the studio as the microphone is quite extraordinary overheads main battery. I walk around a lot of brands before the stop on it (I have over 80 mics from SM58 to U47). It is good to do everything: horns, back vocals, guitars amps, drums and percussion.
Still, it's really stands out or is in overheads drums!
There is in the micro, a spectrum well represented with a much lower midrange now ... rare in OH drums ... The top end is never aggressive, allowing good investments with a mix of battery without microphones on Toms in styles such as jazz, the song or other flexible style for a natural hell. They are close in terms of color, a large membrane microphone type AKG414 or ribbons.
It is this type of microphone that you turn the "s" in "ch" at the top, after you have to like the color of a vintage can go.
Personally, they are always in my backpack perfect little sondier, and it is not uncommon before I turn the scales the pair of KM184 or SM81 often present in home live to put my two little red balls of the most beautiful effect - Visual at first - then sound in a second! Interjections then begin in-house FOH: Oh! Wow, it works! it's expensive?
Well no it's cheap, by far the micro with the best value for the application I just invent the merits above.
I buy my wife a pair for Christmas, she would tax all the time my pair for her studio when she was really more expensive mics for that yet! She has good taste my wife ...
