OVERALL OPINION

Bought last December, I needed an inexpensive microphone that can answer many uses. And I'm not disappointed! I used to record a guitar / vocals, and room mic on drums. The record is very good, despite a sensitivity that, for a static, could be better ... do not hesitate to push the preamp in a voice taken by example. On battery, no problem, so it cash without giving the impression of snoring in the bass.
I prefer the instruments on the voice, but according to the timbre of the singer, it will satisfy those seeking a microphone.
Robust, simple, the design is good. I put 8 for sensitivity.
