is 5 times better than a $200 mic. How much of what I read and hear is
simply an arms race for professional studios ? In talking to pro
friends with their multi-k$ mic/preamps, it seems to end with: "It was
either that, or give the money to the gov in taxes."
What specically are you using the microphones for? There are mikes that
are good for stage, mikes that are good for miking electric guitar amps,
mikes that are good for recording acoustic (non-amplified instruments).
