Feature:
I don't know what anyone would expect this mic to come with... I'd have been happy with just the mic, but it did come with a Shure bumper sticker, a carrying case, the user's guide, a cable tie, and some other stuff to... This mic is the "most useful feature" though! Completely amazing mic! I'm in love...
Quality:
Top-notch. Let me put it this way: This mic survives the famous Shure drop test and will stand up to just as much abuse as any other Shure product will - even though it's a condenser.
Value:
I'd buy it all over again if I needed to. Well worth my money - well worth yours...
Desirability:
I bought it, didn't I?
Sound:
Let me put it this way: I've been using the legendary SM58 for the past 3 years and the Beta 87A completely eliminates that "Gee! I feel like I'm singing in a box!" feeling. It sounds so natural and so complete and so clear. Amazing! Also, this mic has been yelled into, sung "sweetly" into, and screamed into. No distortion - only chrystal clear, beautiful, natural sound... This is the sound of a condenser mic in a rugged, live performance package. I love it!
Overall:
I don't plan on having to buy any other vocal mics ever. It's just for my voice and I expect this mic to outlast me!

Feature:
no on off switch but that doesnt matter to me
Quality:
nice looking ,havent had it long enough to see how road worthy,
but I wont be throwing it in the air or let anyone borrow it.
so if something does happen to it I am sure it will be my own fault
Value:
as the old saying goes you get what you pay for
I payed for an exellent microphone. and I got the best
Desirability:
it looks great . other musicians who see us play and see that I have this microphone will be sad because they dont have one.
Sound:
well I just purchased this mic.I picked this mic based on harmony central user reviews.I play in a duo. guitar and drums.
I have been using the sm58. when I bought this I wasnt sure if I had done the right thing.afterall the sm58 sounds great.during rehearsal,
while singing. my drummers wife (who doesnt know anything about music equipment,but knows what sounds good to her ears)she has heard us play many times.for the first time ever she came back from the kitchen and said wow what did you do to your voice.its so clear and crisp. I can understand every word you are singing.she did not even know I had my new microphone.!!! I now know I did the right thing by buying this mic. and that was just singing thru the monitors.
cant wait to sing thru my carvin speakers. I know it will be sweeeet!!!
Ease of Use:
plug it in and sing
Support:
give it a ten simply because I am confident I wont need it
Overall:
Like i said
i just purchased this microphone and put a lot of thought into it before purcasing this great microphone.money is a hard thing to come by and there are many other things I could have or maybe should have usrd the money for.
but I am really glad I didnt do that.I plan to use this mic for a long time
