Eric makes some good points as to how tough being a retailer can be. To his point about trying then buying elsewhere - My daughter worked in the top local sports store and a woman came in to try on a pricey shoe - (Asics Kayano) After making sure of a good fit which involved at least 10 - 15 mins of my daughters (the shop's) time and walking around the store etc, the "customer" glibly says 'Great , now I ve got hat sorted I can buy them on line" and walked out. At least in this case the shop could re-pack and sell the product as new stock. It can be a tough world and tougher when electronics and transport are involved.
Cheers, Ross

FWIW and no offence meant to ShadowK but I have Beyer 700 Pro x and I can't agree with his summation of their abilities - to me they've ended up being "fun" listens but realistically the bass is out of whack (their major drawback). I would trust the much cheaper AT M40 (not 50) before the Beyers. My final advice is, don't listen to me but listen for yourself first. - shows how we all hear differently I think. Cheers, Ross

That's an insane price for what's offered if it lives up to it's promise.

Hi Benny, you've put in a lot of work with these 2 vids so thank you heaps; they are to my ears very cool and worthy mics. They would be great on piano in a busy mix as they seem quite open without too much upper bass emphasis but still enough to not sound skinny. Nice stuff , Cheers, Ross

Hey guys, hadaja's post shows how we all hear differently and I've been financially burned by several big rap items bought on spec because I live in an out of the way place and go on forum vibes etc. (Amphion 15 or Focal Clear Pro e.g.) Having said that, on the positive side of the buy on recommendation ledger is a Chandler TG type L which is a little cracker. Not sure what you can take out of that O.P. but there it is. Cheers, Ross

I get what you are saying about hearing the truth of the mic Benny - that happened. to me when using a pre from a Nagra tape machine - that deliniation of different mics essential tones is an addictive thing. Cheers, Ross

I posted in the classifieds but if you're like me you rarely look at it. I've a Heiserman cap I want to have as an option on my newer model MG CMV 563 thus Im looking for the head assembly without a working capsule which could be an old Neumann or even a Blue (I think) The mic came with an adaptor to suit other options. Let me know. Cheers, Ross

Thanks for you work on this Paul, I slightly prefer B but they are close and in fact I don't go for either for this Vox. My gut says, I'd need to work with that style of cap in my own mic before being certain of appraisal. Cheers, Ross

The 416 is the ubiquitous sound recordists mic and used a lot in voice over studios as well in Aus. Amazed there are no 'plosives with them without the wind sox and also take my hat off to the engineer who decided to use them in this context. They are providing consistently excellent sound in a really challenging environment Cheers, Ross

Yep, the old 451 ( I have an EB from 1983 ) is a great mic with a lot of reach and a sweet sound. Have cut a few albums using it as the lead Vox mic and it works beautifully ( on the right voice of course) Cheers, Ross

In support of John's P.O.V - that recording he posted of the Samar 32 sounds terrific ; at any price let alone $299 I'd be starting right there. Cheers, Ross
