Beyer makes some wonderful mics. They are less known in the US than some other brands, but I suspect are more available and better known in Europe. A good site with a lot of info on Beyer (and other mics) is

I have a lot of different Beyer mics and like them a lot. Some of the standouts are:
M201 -- a SD dynamic mic that is like an SM57 on steroids. Great on drums and instruments, particularly snare and cabs.
Any of their ribbons -- M160 in particular for overheads and cabs. The M500 is a wonderful vocal mic on some voices. The M130 is a great figure of 8 ribbon.
M380 - a figure of 8 dynamic mic (but not a ribbon) that is great on bass and kick (there is a more modern TG version of this mic also).
MC834 - a LD condenser with multi point roll off and pads. A very "realistic" as opposed to "flattering" mic. Great vocal mic on some voices (I use it for background vocals a lot) and a great room mic. One pattern only (cardioid). There is a multipattern version of this mic but it costs a lot more. I've picked up a couple of these on E-Bay pretty cheap (less than$300) because they are relatively unknown. A bargain at that price IMHO. They listed for over $1K.
Soundstar II dynamic - a great screamer mic. Better than an SM-58 for performing and relatively cheap on e-bay. Sounds kind of like an SM7.
M88 - A "condenser sounding" dynamic mic with a wide range. Great all purpose mic with substantial proximity effect. Good enough for Phil Collins. A great vocal mic on the right voice.
MCE93 -- pencil condensers. Very decent instrument mics. Relatively unknown in the States and thus very cheap used. I paid @$150-250 a pair for two pairs of them and they listed at @$500 each. They are not Neumanns or Josephsons, but at that price they sure blow out Marshalls and Oktavas IMHO. The MCE94 uses a battery for phantom power. A great deal at the right price.
There are lots more Beyer mics and they are worth checking out IMHO. As always, you can't tell which mic is right for your voice until you actually try it.
