Which should i buy?

[jho1986]

I have a firepod and i was thinking of getting paired peluso CEMC6 SDC mics and a FMR really nice pre, and then maybe buying an AT4033. That would run me for something like 1300. I am also thinking that maybe instead of all that, just spending a little more and getting a paired set of AKG 414 mics. I will need to be able to record guitar, vocals, and drum overheads.

What do you guys think?

a decent pre and some decent mics

or

2 great mics with my FIREPOD pres

I'd get Rode NTK over AKG C414 myself. After listening to them both at http://www.thelisteningsessions.com/session5.htm . The Rode seems cleaner and more detailed.
