OK,
You've all given me some stellar advice on high end vocal microphones and I'm taking it to heart. One more question: Let's say I was to buy and use one of these great vocal mics, and I showed up at a venue using a rather inexpensive PA like a Carvin CX630 6 chanell 200 watt powered mixer with 822 12" speakers. Someone mentioned to me if I use a great mic with this inexpensive kind of system it would not show off the vocal qualities of the mic? The guy suggested that the sound chain is only as good as its weakest link. Then I wondered if it would be OK to use with my SWR California Blonde Acoustic Amp for smaller venues? Am I looking at having to upgrade my PA in order to take advantage of say, the Neumann KMS-105? Thanks for taking the time to walk through some of these issues with me.
Regards,
Mike Gilles
