Sweet, just ordered a couple to add to the collection.

 

[warble2]

Great mics. I use mine all the time and have had success using them as drum OH's, and for vocals.

 

[kojdogg]

yep i ordered three as christmas presents for people. i had one of these like 5-6 years ago, but (shockingly) sold it. at the time it cost me $180 and didn't come with a shockmount.

 

[timboZ]

One of the best SDOTD they had in a long time!!

 

[kojdogg]

well, based on what they've been doing recently, if they don't sell enough or sell out, they might just discount it more and leave it on sale. i bought an rsm-5 when they were on sdotd at $99.99, then they put them on sale for $79.99 and now $69.99 ... though they don't seem to have any in stock.
so if they don't sell out or hit some other sales target, look for these to be on sale for $29.99 pretty soon

 

[Daveg62]

ordered 2 just now. plan on trying them for overheads.

 

[thehymns]

I ordered one because that's all I can afford but would have liked to try a pair. I record using a four piece Ludwig kit and plan on using it on a tom if one of my two MD421s is on the kick or I expand the drum kit. I'm also interested in trying it on vocals and acoustic guitar.

 

[Sinistah]

nice price, especial considering the retail is about double.........

but to anyone who uses or has used this mic, is it really good for vocals or just percussion???

 

[A.j.]

Are these made in China now?

 

[Testing123]

Are these made in China now?

When weren't they?

(My mistake - I forgot that at one time CAD did claim to make its mics in the U.S. - I don't think they are now.)

 

[Ridickolas]

shiiit. i tried to order but the dont ship to uk. theyre £140 in the uk... like $200 something

 

[Fab4ever]

And free shipping too!!!

I really didn't need another LDC, but I couldn't pass it up.

 

[RocknRollOver]

Thanks to Thajeremy for posting this, I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.

I ordered one and then thought, what the heck, I'll need a like pair of mics anyway, so I ordered another one.

My wife might not see it like I do but I've learned that it is easier to ask for forgiveness than to beg for permission.

 

[WhiteStrat]

Thanks for the heads up. I usually have goodies sitting in my shopping cart at MF waiting for the Stupid Deal of The Day to be something I need (want!). When the SDOTD is good enough, I pull the trigger on the cart. So for me, that was today with a pair of these mics.

 

[brutus]

DAMN...sold out!

 

[Webb]

Yeah, thanks Jeremy. I couldn't sleep this morning and was checking out the board when I saw this post. I quickly yanked out the credit card and ordered one. Probably should've got two, but oh well.

 

[thajeremy]

no prob guys....I check the SDOTD every morning around 4:15 EST.....I actually ended up getting 4 of them....I had a $100 MF gift card from my B-day back in Sept. so the 4 only cost me $136....not bad...Ill probably sell off a couple but Im really interrested in trying them over a drum kit..

 

[Ironklad Audio]

thank god these sold out...i was about to go for one, even though i really shouldn't

 

[Booda]

thank god these sold out...i was about to go for one, even though i really shouldn't

Same here... I guess I fought it off just long enough.

How would you guys say the m177 compares to SPB1. I have a B1 and besides the CAD having a roll off and Pad...
