Which Measurement Microphone ?

[M300SEL]

i need a Measurement Microphone, for testing my Control room before and after treatment , Budget is 100$ .

What do you guys recommend from this list :

dbx RTA-M Reference Microphone for DriveRack PA (99.95$)

APEX 220 Measurement Microphone (55$)

Behringer ECM8000 Microphone ( 49.99$ )

Nady CM100 Reference Measurement Condenser Microphone ( 49.99$ )

I'm sure any of those will be equivalent. For better or for worse.

I'm going to guess they're all made in the same factory in China, so I'd buy the one that's most convenient for you.

As a side note, I use the ECM8000 for curving new speaker designs as well as rooms. It's not bad for a $50 mic... not the quietest mic in the world, but quiet enough and linear enough for accurate measurement use.

Yeah, all of these mics are pretty noisy, especially for measurement mics.

Fortunately, it's easy to baseline the noise and see the signal way above it, so it's not really an issue for measurement, at least in the typical 20hz-20khz "human hearing" frequencies.
