I own both the AT4033 and rode Nt1000 both are good mics but I think that the AT has a bit more of its own signature that probably makes it less of a "do-all" Mic.

The NT1000 is a very underated Mic imho.


Who are you talking to? :confused:
 
I believe he was refering to the age of this thread. The last entry before yours was over two years ago. :p
 
Of those mics, I've used everything but the CAD, and liked all of them for one purpose or another. Out of the bunch, I think the 4033 would be the best choice. It's not entirely neutral, but does the job on nearly anything, whereas the Rode can be hit or miss.
 
Don'cha just love these old threads?

I definitely recommend the Baby Bottle, by the way. Just because I KNOW no one who was involved at the beginning is reading this thread anymore. :D

Germany aint no cheaper.

Ive been living here for four years, and really the prices are steep too. The only benefit that I can get(because I am a US Servicemember) is the exemption from VAT taxes, which saves me a lot of money on mics, but German Citizens pay the same as Americans, heck more even. I know of one place in the US that can get prices that will beat the German retailers on German Mics. Thats all kinds of messed up. I do like not having to pay vat taxes, ive gotten a couple pairs of MGs that way , saved myself 200 bucks.
Ive never seen good mics in flea markets, or mics at all actually. Ebay it or someplace like vintageking for the good stuff.

This thread is 3 1/2 years old. Interesting about the voting from that era. The CAD M179 was a rather unknown mic back then. I would suspect that a new poll today would have different results, plus need to have the ADK Hamburg and/or Vienna on the voting list.
