"Great Sound-Great Price!!!"

Quality:
Well built, sturdy and it came with a nice road case

Value:
You can't get more mic for the money in terms a quality of reproduction.

Sound:
This mic is an audio mirror...if you don't like what you hear, you'll have to place the blame on something, or someone, else.

Overall:
I use this mic for commercial voiceover and married with my symetrix528e, it gives me a high end studio sound for a low end price. In fact, it paid for itself in one session.Very nice product.
