"Blown away by the quality and clarity"
I have used much more expensive mics but this macthes with all of them if not more
Sound
I absolutly love the sound of this micrphone, it has a rich full sound when close miked .
Plus its very clear , I sing in resturants and wine bars and since using this mic , the responce has been great. It gives a nice airly lift to my vocals and makes it a real joy to sing.
It sounds a lot more expensive then it actually is.
