"A must-have addition to your microphone cabinet."

Feature:
Umm...its a plain jane dynamic mic. No switches. Nice gold XLR connector though.

Quality:
Solid constuction, awesome.

Value:
Based on it's superior sound, the value is outstanding.

Sound:
Blows the SM57 out of the water on snare top, guitar cabs. Pleasently surprised when we tried the i5 on a scratch vocal track-warm full sound on male voice. Equally surprised when we tried it in conjuction with a SDC on acoustic guitar. The best "utility" microphone on the market.

Ease of Use:
Point and shoot...great.

Support:
Have not needed to contact Audix. That's a good thing, right?

Quality:
Very well made, Never did like the rotating head of the 57.

Value:
Bought 5 of these for my band. Got a decent discount and the guys in the band loved the mike!

Sound:
Great sound, replacing our SM57's for milking. Great quality reproduction and impressive vocal work as well.

Ease of Use:
Like the man said, it's a mike, plug it in and speak!

Overall:
Best mike I've used in a long time. Milking banjo's can be a tough job for any mike butthis one pulls it off like a champ.

The i-5, the latest innovation from Audix, is a dynamic microphone that can be used for any instrument miking application for stage and studio. With its sleek styling and unique probe cap design, the i-5 features a durable cast zinc alloy body and black E-coat finish. Every model is attractively laser etched with its model and serial number.

The Audix i5 was designed by the true microphone experts at Audix to handle
a wide variety of applications and survive the absolute torture of live
sound gigs. The Audix i5 is the ideal choice for snare, toms, percussion
instruments, and can even handle the blistering SPL levels of electric guitar
cabinets. Built around a bulletproof transformerless - XLR balanced design and
housed in a precision cast zinc-alloy case with a steel mesh grill (stick hits no
problem here), the i5 is a super-smooth dynamic mic featuring 50-16kHz

rejection (>23dB) for exceptionally high gain before feedback.
