I am very satisfied with the x1 and I do not plan on selling it. I do how plan on buy 3 more new mic in a couple of weeks because I collect them for my mic cabinet.
Sound
I purchased the mic about a week ago and decided to give it a test run today. I must say this mic sounds great! The mid range sits the vocal right out front in my mix.
Features
It has a rubber coating that makes it scratch resistent and able to handle some tough handling in a studio environment. The bass roll off and padding switch is fantastic!

I used a art pro channel and a m audio fast track ultra to capture my vocals. It was really simple to use.
