looks like it got dinged a little in manufacture

qc could be a little lacking

at this price point

oh, maybe second thoughts

and a retrofit

to improve the sonic characteristics

Looks like it's covering the ports behind the capsule. That would turn it omni, IIR, and if it's cardiod to begin with.
 
Anyone recognise the one in the middle

Hi,

I see a Shure and an AKG. Anyone recognise the one in the middle?

Thanks,

Hairy Larry
 
They look simular to the Ones I get for a Dollar up here in Canada accept the Ones I get have a detachable XLR Cable......

Those Plastic (Mylar??) Diaphrams are the Same as the Ones In my Dollar Mics and they suck pretty bad....

I don"t use the Dollar Mics I get , well not for anything really musical , what I do is I gut the Bodies and Build my own Condenser Mics out of the Cheapo Mic bodies as that is all they are really good for....


Cheers
