    SM81 or SR77?

    both are excellent mics, and a good step up from the NT5's. Aren't the SR77's a good bit more $$$ though? In my opinion, you aren't going to be disappointed with either choice. The SM81's are surprisingly good for the money. Also check out the Josephson C42's

    Tube Mics

    I forgot to add that I put a NOS 12AT7 Mullard tube in my 6802t previously mentioned. It did make a considerable improvement over the stock tube.

    Tube Mics

    I owned an ACM-6802t, and was really surprised at how 'warm' it sounded. The "tube" sound is definitely a bit different than the solid state style of condenser. I own a Blue Kiwi too, which is probably my favorite microphone ever. However, the ACM-6802t still sounded great on a lot of stuff...

    Naniant and Karma Mics Anyone!!!

    In general, the smaller the diaphragm, the lesser the output, the lower the signal-to-noise-ratio, and thus the more noise you hear. The trade-off is that off-axis response becomes more and more flat, and the microphone more "accurate" in general. In practice, I haven't found the Naiant mics...

    Robust, 'budget' condensers for mobile recording?

    I own an MB4000c. It is definitely on the noisier side. It doesn't sound all that great either, and the output isn't very hot. On the other hand, the hand-held style of vocal mic might be the way to go. These types of mics have built-in windscreens and shock-mounting. Not to mention, they tend...

    Owens Corning 703 bull poop??

    Play a few low frequency sine tones (one at a time) and walk around your room. Take note of where the null and peak points of the standing waves are. It looks like you have three parallel surfaces in that room. You may have some nulls at your mix position for particular low frequencies, which...

    Heil Classic SDOTD

    I've been wanting to try a heil mic for a while now, so I jumped on this. I'd be interested to know if anyone has tried recording with it.

    Best condencer mic in $400-$800 range...

    A Blue Woodpecker would be smoother on the highs. I think you can find them for $650-$700 b-stock online sometimes.

    FMR RNP and RNCs

    I personally haven't had any problems with the RNP and low sensitivity microphones. Typically, because I don't use low sensitivity microphones on low volume sources. I think I remember reading that the RNP has slightly worse EIN than some other preamps, and that it was designed with high...

    Which Kick Mic?

    +1 re-20, though lately I've been using an acm-4 on kick with excellent results (don't do this unless you use a big foam windscreen or pop filter. Unless you hate your ribbon mic...in which case, go ahead and use it without a windscreen.)

    First post! New Mic: CAD M179 or MXL 960 for vox/acoustic

    I think the CAD M179 would be an excellent first condenser. Sounds decent, switchable polar patterns, hours of fun.

    Need suggestions for Large condenser $1K or less

    If there is any chance you could actually go try a couple of these mics somewhere, that would be advisable. You can't go wrong with an akg C414 or an Audio Technica AT4050. In my opinion, the 414 B-xls is a little smoother than the 414 B-XL II. A blue kiwi smokes them both, but that will be a...
