I have a pair of the sE X1 mic . Used them for overheads and voice . They were $160 each brand new . Thats like crazy cheap ! They sound good . Smooth top and for the price I think they are amazing . They do have a little bit of a ringing , I think in the 1K area ?? Not sure where , but I hear something ringing around there . Nothing some EQ can't fix .
For the money they are awesome , but they don't sound as good as like a Shure KSM32 , which I upgraded to for overheads . But if you were broke they are a really good mic and you can make really decent recordings with them .
I think sE makes the best value mics around . From what I've heard from other people is that theres not a bad sE mic . You always get more than what you pay for . Their goal is to be the next Neumann .

I picked up a 3300a in a trade a few years back. Pretty decent, well built multi pattern LC. I've gotten some nice vocal takes with it. Worked well with acoustic guitar & cello also. No experience with any of their other mics. I've been intrigued in the Neve designed RN17 SD and RN1 Ribbon for some time. |

Has anyone taken them up on their free trial?

Almost without exception, cheap microphones sound over-priced to me.
