"Great mic"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
The price is right and the sound is too, so don't doubt it because of it's low cost. It sounds really good with the Presonus DP2 Dual Path. A friend of mine did a test with the combo and it sounded great and we have higher end pres and mics. But you can get a pro sound with these 2 products just learn how to use them right.

"A workhorse for the hobbyist and semi-pro alike."

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
This isn't a 1000$ specialist mic. Its a cheap all round workhorse, giving you a real good recording, if use correctly. You isn't gonna record with the quality of the pro studio mics, but its better then most home studio mics out there, also good for the medium level and semi-pros.
Sound
For the price i doubt you'll get any better sound, i heard worst coming out of a 500$ microphone. You is going to use this a lot. It don't preform stallar on anything, but works well both with me rapping, and soft female singing
Features
The spidermount is weak, but other then that all works, its a microphone, not many features on them.
Ease of Use
Plug it in, dial up the gain on the preamp, although it don't need a lot. Press record, and done.
Quality
Survived some hardcore session. The bag isn't gonna protect it much on the road, but buy a microphone case, and you are in the clear. don't think you brake it in the studio.
Value
Worth at least twice, you get solid preforms every time.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't used it, but sign they guest book, answer the next day.
The Wow Factor
got an old school sex appeal to it, gotta love the shape of it.
