I haven't tried one of these from LinearX, but the specs on this
electret condenser look really nice (especially for someone looking
for a measurement mic on a budget)

So, is anyone able to recommend good quality but
inexpensive dynamic
mics that can cope with the loud SPL of a pipe organ at ten feet,
have a low background noise, and don't mind being at the end of a
20m XLR cable?
Today 'cheap' general-purpose mics tend to be electrets - simple
electret capsules can be mass-produced much cheaper than dynamic
ones. Dynamic mics, at least good ones, tend to be specialised for
vocal use, while ribbons dominate the high-quality non-condenser
niche.
