Feature:
Good Mice Clip, nice Mic Bag with stand thread adapter.

Quality:
Build Quality comperable to the workhourse SM58. If it gets dirty just throw it in the wash, let air dry and you're good for the next gig - JK Road worthy Mic that can hold its own against all competitors.

Value:
Great Bang for the Buck. You could pay more...but you won't be buying a better Mic.

Desirability:
Great Black finish. Stands out from other mics. Slender design that is easy to hold. Has some heft to it. Feels expensive.

Sound:
Cleaner than a Beta 58 with the same smooth character of a Sennheiser 845 but with more output.

Ease of Use:
Pretty good right out of the box. Set the gain and you're good to go. Can be a little Bass Heavy with some voices. Hit the high pass and you're done.

Support:
Audix has one of the Best Customer Support departments in the business. These guys are Mic Nuts. If you have an idea to make the product better (don't hurt yourself trying) give them a call and don't be surprised if you see an upgrade. Try that with the other guys...

Overall:
I'll be using the OM3 for vocal and general purpose use for a loooong while. There is no such thing as the perfect mic or the "do it ALL" mic. Lets just say this is one that you should have in your Tool Kit if you plan on making money in Live Sound.
