I need a mic for vocals only and was thinking about purchasing one of the two. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about these mics and whats the big difference in the two that makes one $200 more expensive (NTK)?
I have both the ntk and the nt1000. They are both good mics. The price difference has to do with the ntk being a tube mike, but quality wise I wood say they are in the same league. The ntk has a fuller sound (bigger bass response), while the nt1000 is just clean sounding. For vocals, it is just a matter of taste. I find the nt1000 works pretty well on all vocals, the ntk can sound ammazing (on most), and then not so great on others (girl singers with "piercing" voice for example).
