Manufacturer's Description for Samson C02 Condenser Microphone Pair

The C02 is a pencil style condenser microphone that excels in both live performance and recording applications. Equipped with a liner frequency response for superior reproduction, it is also designed to withstand high sound pressure levels. Extremely sensitive, it employs a tight cardioid pattern to reduce feedback. A special shock-mounted mic holder is included to minimize noise and provide additional protection.

Features:

- Extended range frequency response for optimum reproduction and exceptionally clear, crisp sound with great transient response
- Ultra sensitive, low mass element picks up all of the nuances of any performance
- Tight cardioid polar pattern minimizes feedback problems and effectively rejects signals not originating directly in front of the mic capsule
- Withstands high SPLs, lending itself to a wide range of miking situations
- Special shock-mounted mic holder is included to minimize noise and provide additional protection
- Rugged brass case ensures reliable performance in even the most demanding environments
- The included foam wind screen can be fitted to greatly reduce wind noise when used in an outdoor environment, for reducing 'P Popping in vocal applications
- Lightweight and compact, the C02 can be mounted on any standard microphone stand using the included shock-mount mic clip
- Included foam-lined impact resistant carrying case for convince when transporting three C02 microphones from venue to venue
- Gold plated XLR connector

"lotta mic for the money"
Sound: I use these as overheads in my drum booth at church / @ the hi hats and ride cymbals. They also pick up my crashes. These teamed with a sure sm57/beta52 drum mic pack are giving us phenomenal sound. The CO'2s are very articulate, and pick up well. A little EQ'ing on the mixer board for taste, and I like them a lot. I rate them a ten for the price. These do their job well. Feature: Semi sturdy feel. I would want a heavier duty Sure or Audix Condenser setup for full time travel/play/gigging.........I play in one place every week and they stay set up...perfect for me.....10 for the money Ease of Use: plug and play........10 for the money Quality: works for me.... Value: 10 for the money Manufacturer Support: I thought one was bad but it was an old cable i was using. I emailed sampson. They did respond. They told me they would replace it if they found it to be defective. I am ok w/ the way the handled business..but it truly wasnt the warmth of Gretsch supportor yamaha support that i have gotten...i give them a 7 for seeming to be a little cold. The Wow Factor: it sounds GREAT in a drum application.if you can make hihats sound good then these will reproduce it well Overall: 10 for the money...at this price buy a pair if your not gonna beat em up too bad on the road...put your savings into your instrument, these will mic it well in a live setup.

"The Dark Horse in Shining Armour"
Sound: I luv the sound of these. Let me put it this way, compared it with an AKG C1000S and recorded samples on the same cymbal hitting a few spots. Then i played back to a few friends to hear and see their feedback. Everyone pointed that the Samson sounded better. Sometimes it's better not to tell people about the mic when you let them compare, they always tend to prefer the well-known mics more just becos of preconceptions they already have. Rate it an 8 becos i haven't had chances to compared them with NT5, MK012 or KM184s. Feature: What features are really needed, all needed is there... Ease of Use: Besides cymbals, i have used them as room mikes, but they tend to pick up only higher frequencies. Used them on vocals and they didn't fit my friends, actually was only right for my own voice. They are best on cymbals and as a bridge pickup mic for acoustic guitar. Quality: Does feel fragile, gotta take care of them well.... Value: Come on, look at the price... Whatz more, i only paid 50% of it for a brand new match pair, the shop was on clearance sale.... wow, i really had a deal... Manufacturer Support: Don't know... The Wow Factor: It looks really great... Overall: Stop talking about those big names, on mics it's not WYPWYG, i can name you numerous occasions where the more branded overated mics lose out greatly to the cheaper unknown ones. Like i say, i met a person who kept swearing on a branded mic even though the cheaper ones were obviously better sounding. People have preconceptions that are difficult to break...
Style of Music: Everything!!!
