Great mics!
DavC 23.02.2022
They sound bright and a bit flimsy, but they definitely serve a purpose. Nice modern and upfront acoustic guitar or mandolin tone that will sit nicely in a busy mix, per example. They won't replace a more refined SDC mic, but at that price, they have their place in a mic locker. -1 star for quality because the holder is rate on the fragile/cheap side, but again, for the price, who can complain...

HV
A must have pair of mics
Hugo Varvoglis 22.12.2017
It?s a classic mic, bright, clean, easy to use in the mix, great for acoustic guitars, overheads, strings and you name it , I have use it to record voices too, Doesn?t add low frequencies so a bright voice in a pop song could match. It?s a matched pair of mics that every recording studio must have.
