"This might be the best buy in the music industry, seriously."

Feature:
Strong, I mean to me the main feature is the sound... and that's why I'm scoring it a 9. I'm not rating this "for it's cost" I'm giving it a 9/10 against EVERYTHING on the entire market

Quality:
The quality was perfect, a sturdy case , a rock hard microphone, and it's wonderful.

Value:
10 really isn't high enough

Desirability:
It's nice, the way I have it setup with a nice popfilter and a few other things makes it even more desirable

Sound:
WARM? I don't think that's strong enough, I am sad that I haven't had to use it more, but while using a tube preamp art with this it sounds so perfect

Support:
Never had to use it, so I'd say that speaks for itself

Overall:
Of all the equipment I own and have purchased I'm most pleased with this. I can't stress what a difference a good microphone will make, and you won't be sorry when you hear yourself or anyone else on this mic. I've used it from someone who can sing opera to hiphop vocals and all were definitly sounding great.

"This is a great microphone for vocals and acoustic instruments"

Feature:
it comes with everything but the shockmount which is about 50 bucks. compare that to what Neumann is asking for an EA-1 shockmount for their TLM103!! You'll be pleasantly surprised!

Quality:
very well built

Sound:
compare it to "anything" out there. it is the best not only for the money! Of course I use a preampa nd I take a little 10khz of(about -2db) Sounds superb on vocals and acoustics!
