"The S7 is the perfect mic for recording live rock bands."

Sound: I use the S7 to mic bass cabs, guitar cabs and drums. The sound is always full and crisp without being harsh or hissy. I mostly use it in my home studio, but I did use it last month to mic a live bass cab and it blew everyone away. Feature: The best feature of the S7 is that is can handle high SPL levels. I have had other condenser mics that just could not handle Marshall amps and Ampeg amps, but the S7 works when I record a live band. Ease of Use: Because of its durability and design it is the easiet mic to work with. If you are new to recording, the S7 is the perfect condenser mic to start with. Quality: Perfect manufacturing. I coudl find no flaws in my S7. Value: I was surpised by the low street price of the S7. I think it is an amazing value. (I plan on buying another one next month.) Manufacturer Support: Before buying the S7 I spoke with ADK's president Larry Villella and he was very helpful. He asked great questions about what I needed in a mic and recommended the S7. The Wow Factor: Once I learned about the S7 and read reviews, I HAD TO HAVE IT. And I am not disappointed. Overall: I will always have at least two S7 in my studio mic collection.

Style of Music: Mostly Rock

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "A very flexible, neutral, high SPL work horse."

Sound: The S7 is a smooth honest mic. It has a neutral character that responds well to good mic placement. I have used it in the studio for kick, acoustic guitar, and vocals. Feature: Well featured. The pad makes it ideal for kick drum. The roll-off helped to minimize stage rumble when micing a dobro. Ease of Use: Put is up, turn on phantom, set the gain on the board and away you go. Quality: Mine has been a work horse. It is always ready to go. Value: Great bang for the buck. Manufacturer Support: Larry Villella supports the heck out of his products. The Wow Factor: I wouldn't call it sexy, but it is not ugly by any means. Overall: This mic has a permanent place in my studio. I would buy another one if it ever got lost/stolen/broken.

Style of Music: Classic rock
