Can't be more satisfied

I went to my local guitar shop. I had them plug in 4 microphones. The Shure SM-58, the Shure Beta 58A, the Sennheiser e935 and the e945.

Researching products, it is easy to get caught... read more [+] up in "what are the pros using". Everyone wants to use what their idols use. I was prejudiced to Shure as a result. Big Mistake. Before you buy any microphone try out a bunch. I had the rep plug them in on a clean signal with a good P.A.

After singing into them for a good 30 minutes, the Sennheiser e945 was the one I kept going back to. The clarity was heads and shoulders above the others. I noticed that the Shures were too warm for me. My voice sounded more "nasal" through those. The e945 gave me the most clarity. I was convinced. Running direct, head to head comparison's, I could not beat the range of this mic. From as low as my voice could go to (approaching) scream....this mic handled it.....as crisp as can be.

Using it in rehearsals now for 3 weeks, I must say it cuts through our classic rock band mix just wonderfully. My bass player had an old Shue SM 58 in his bag. I pulled it out and tried a couple songs. I was so glad I stuck with the Sennheiser.

Hey....here's the problem. People, even veterans, are afraid of change. Shure uses older techonology and it is a workhorse no doubt that has stood the test of time. HOWEVER, It might not be the best anymore. This mic will give any of the Shure mics a run for their money.

However, each has a different voice and likes a different sound. Try out as many as you can before you buy. But please, make this one you try. You won't be dissapointed. close [-]

WOW

Absolutely blown away! Our guitarist, who is also a sound engineer, suggested this mic for me. It is EVERYTHING he said it would be. The adjective I most hear describing this mic is "rich" and it is s... read more [+]o true. An amazing microphone. By the way, if the sound engineer can't "deal" with this mic, then he is an idiot, IMHO. It IS cool, however to see that my gain needs to be turned down much lower than everyone else's. Major power and beautiful richness from this mic. I can sing loud OR soft on this mic, whereas I've found Crown works best for soft and SM58 works best for loud (with me). Can sing anything on this mic! I need a Sennheiser endorsement. close [-]

Top notch. Natural sound, Cutting through easily.

First off, I sing a lot of grungy rock stuff in a pretty loud rock band. Eg. Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Audioslave, Guns n Roses, Whitesnake . All the vocal "explosions" are getting through smoothly.

Nice natural sound. Sound engineers (even though they usually deal sm58's) dont seem to have any trouble with it.

Very good rejecting feedback, even with monitors in close range (small clubs etc).

Having worked with other dynamic mics (included the cheaper sm classics) I highly recommend this one.

It's reasonably priced, and delivers what you pay for. Would only switch for a better (and more expensive) condenser mic, if I knew it could stand up on our loud stage. close [-]
