"Good but needs EQ and the old types (< 6-2007) need modification."

Desirability:
Nice, but want black ones.

Sound:
See my earlier comment. Needs EQ on mixer and (if record pipe organ) also a bit on PC. Used them on choir XY/ORTF, harp XY, choir organ, big main organ.

Ease of Use:
See EQ.

Support:
Behringer responded promptly on my comment about poor output-balance. And improved newly delivered ones afterwards. Sadly did not award me by some gift (mikes).

Overall:
Still use them, after i modified the output cicuitry to get optimal balancing effect (suppression of noises from phantom power supply and induced hum/ticks on the balanced cable).

Submitted: 12/16/2007

Style of Music: Classical singing etc.

"Just try them!"

Feature:
The mics came with everything I need or what for them what more is there to say.

Sound:
I use these for live sound in a small chapel with lots of reverb and they work great. - one for an overhead on a drum kit and I hear everything (the only other mic I really need is one for the kick) - another to mic a violin. After listening to the recordings I made it sounded like I was standing next to the insturments - amazing reproduction of the sound source - which, being an insturmentalist myself, is exacly what I want a mic to do.

Ease of Use:
I just pluged them in and was amazed.

Submitted: 6/24/2007

Style of Music: classical, jazz, christain rock, etc.

From Our Catalog
These professional condenser microphones for studio recording and live applications have all the big-time features packed in an extremely compact form factor. They are sold as a matched pair -- perfect for stereophonic recording -- for a price you wouldn't even consider it bought you a single one. The C-2s utilize a low-mass diaphragm for ultra-wide frequency response and ultimate sound reproduction and their inconspicuous size makes them perfect for acoustic instruments, overhead applications, pianos and similar. The cardioid pickup pattern effectively eliminates feedback, plus there is switchable low frequency roll-off and -10 dB input attenuation. Ultra low-noise transformerless FET input eliminates low-frequency distortion, while a gold-plated 3-pin XLR connector assures the highest signal integrity. Custom microphone stand adapters, windscreens, stereo-bar and transport case are all included, making these condenser microphones ready for action straight out of the box! If super-compact size is paramount but you don't want to compromise on the performance, then a pair of C-2s is the answer.
