Main Vocal mic for around a 1000$

[AudioVault]

Ive pretty much narrowed it down to the Soundelux U195, or a Neumann TLM 103. pros/cons? any other options in that range?

Something tubesque?
T3
ADK TT
K2 or NTK
AT 4060
CAD VSM
SE Z5600
or maybe ribbony
AEA 92
or get what ya want, maybe a matched pair of 414's

If you've got it narrowed down to those two, you should test both on YOUR voice to see which mic suits your voice better.

They are both excellent mics that can be used for many different sources. However, if this is to be your main vocal mic, I would definitely get them side by side to compare.

Good luck, Rez

The Gefell M930. One fine little mic.
