Sound:
I absolutly love the sound of this micrphone, it has a rich full sound when close miked . Plus its very clear , I sing in resturants and wine bars and since using this mic , the responce has been great. It gives a nice airly lift to my vocals and makes it a real joy to sing. It sounds a lot more expensive then it actually is.
