Compare/Contrast: Shure Sm7 & EV RE20

[Cooncat]

Hey guys, first post here...

I am looking for a nice dynamic mic and am particularly interested in the Sm7 and the EV RE20. I'm looking for a good all-around utility mic with special emphasis on recording screamy rock type vocals. I'm trying to avoid the "which is better" pitfall because I understand they are both great mics and it's more a matter of having the right mic for the right situation. Therefore, I've decided a compare/contrast of the two mics would help me decide which one fits my situation the best. Anyone with experience with either of these mics is welcome to chime in!

Thanks!

I paid $399 for a SM7B at GC last week. My inquiries with those in the know all indicated that I should own one or the other, but that I would not need both. My applications are voice over and female vocal.
