CAD GXL2400 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone Reviews

37 People rated this product :
           9 out of 10
           10 out of 10
"-WOW-"
Feature:
9-10 for me as it is missing a nice carrying case.. which i think all mic's should have.

Quality:
I give it a 9 because ive heard better but for the amount I spent on the mic brand new .. its perfect.. using a shure compared to this has its differences but for sure I think If u have an extra 100 bucks in ur pocket .. go buy this mic !!!!! ...

Value:
best value, for buying this mic for only 60 dollars ive had people come into my studio and asking me if I wanted to sell it for a good 4 x the price of what it is worth but .. no way .. some call my stupid .. i call myself smart as this is an incredible product.

Desirability:
its soo f'n good I want to drop my pants right now and make love to it .. its that good.

Sound:
I use this product on a day to day basis, and have recorded many songs with it in my home based studio. I have produced many songs to hit the air waves of radio stations and lemme tell u if its there then its definatly a great microphone.

Ease of Use:
very easy to use, except some people might run into difficulties as it records and picks up sounds 9 feet away. best used in a sound proofed booth.

Support:
I dont know .. as ive never had to use any kind of support.

Overall:
buy this product.. if u dont .. ur crazy ... simple as that..

"Unknown Wonder"
Feature:
Little known feature is internal low-cut switch, when 'out' this mic picks up acoustic bass at 8-10'! Great 'single-mic' for acoustic sets.

Quality:
I use it for acoustic bluegrass, both live and recording. Haven't dropped it or gotten it wet, so no problems.

Value:
Best sound-for-dollar of MANY mic's I've used and heard. Records as well as mic's costing MUCH more.

Desirability:
I'm buying a second one for stereo recording and live stage shows.

Sound:
Several bands and singers I work with cannot believe the sound v/s Dollars of this mic. Most thought it cost much more. Some compared it to mics costing 3-4x as much.

Support:
So far no problems so I can't honestly report on support.

Overall:
I doubt I'll find a better sounding mic in this price range, I hope to be using it for years.
