Question $500...need overhead(s) mic(s)...what would you do?

I've got $500 to spend on overhead(s) mic(s). Should I purchase one KSM32 or two SM94s? Or maybe different mics? What would you do?

My snare, kick, and all my toms are independently miked.

(I play rock, funk, jazz, all genres.)

Thanks!

I would buy 2 Marshall MXL 603s. I have 4 and i use them on my overheads, acoustic guitars, room mics, these are great sounding mics and they are really cheap priced (Around $200) so that takes care of alot of Overhead/acoustic guitar mics.

Have you ever used them as drum overheads?
