The Thomann stuff is cheap, yes, but certainly cheerful. I "acquired" a set of their real cheap pencil condensers a while back, and they're great for overheads - sepecially considering the price. They're self-noisy as hell, so it's about all you CAN use them for, but at the prices they charge, it's still a great deal.episg said:not worth getting a cheap mic set? Ive seen some on www.thomann.de but was worried about whether its worth the bother? or just keeping the budget down by getting seperate mic's?
