These are the mics i am not looking at purchasing for vocals. Which is your favourite? and why? is it crisper, cleaner etc.
 
Well, I'll tell you straight up I am a huge Rode fan. I have the NT1-A, NT2-A, NT2000 and K2. They are the overall quietest mics in the marketplace at this time. They also are modeled to provide performance more like the Neumann's and top AKG's. So without hesitation I would go with the Rode.
 
I don't have experience with the Rode. If I had to pick between the Apex and the MXL, I'd go with the MXL. The Apex can sound good on quite a few things, but stock it has flaws. The grill is one, the circuit is another, but the major problem is the capsule.

Technically the capsules for the Apex and MXL are made in the same factory, but Marshall seems to be pickier about the quality for the V69.
