VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: I bought this mic to use as a stereo drum overhead and it sounds fantastic! The frequency response is flat and accurate, I haven't heard any distortion or breakup, and it's pretty versatile. Feature: For an entry level stereo mic this is a great product. I really wish the mic had a -10db and/or an 80hz switch(s). Even if it would've added $20 I think it'd be worth the extra cost. This does come with a Ease of Use: Well, it's pretty straight forward. Plug the multi-pin end into the mic and the left and right XLR cables in to two open channels then pan left and right. Quality: The diaphragms were positioned 90ยบ from one another, but not seated correctly in the mic. They were leaning to one side and actually touching the metal mesh. I had to (very carefully) take the mic apart and reposition them myself. I'm not sure if not adjusting them would have had any impact on the sound since I did this before even plugging the mic in. Ever so often the right channel cuts in and out. I'm fairly certain this is due to a bad connection between XLR cables and not me tampering with the capsules. Value: Overall value is OK at best. This is a good entry level mic for those of us who are curious as to what a stereo mic is all about without spending $800+ on a more expensive model. Although, if I could go back in time, I'd skip on this mic and go straight for the Revelation Stereo. Yes it's MUCH pricier, but I think it'd be worth it in the end. Manufacturer Support: I own several MXL products and have never had to contact customer support. The Wow Factor: Low cost. Cheaply built. But an overall good sound and a good introduction into stereo mics. Overall: If this mic lasts a year or two before falling apart or a channel stops working I'll be happy. I've already played around with this mic enough to know that having a high quality stereo mic will be an excellent addition to my home studio.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
