October 9, 2008 Music Background: Home studio/hobbyist/guitarist The Best Sounding Microphone for the money
by Laniko Music from Northern California
I recently upgraded my microphone collection to include a tube microphone. After shopping around and demoing various microphones to include Neumann tube microphones in this price range I have to say ... read more [+]that this is the best of its class. This baby screams pro!! More options than any other microphones at this price and built like a tank. Class A valve circuitry, 6072 twin triode, edge-terminated 1" gold sputtered diaphragm, and custom designed JENSEN transformers. This microphone is warm, transparent, airy on the top end, open, and fat. All of the things you would expect to get from multiple microphones you can get with just one! It comes with a basic mount, shock mount, custom built double shielded oxygen free copper multicore cable with custom designed heavy duty plugs and sockets, and power supply with -10dB and -20dB Pads, a 2 position high pass filter, and 9 polar patterns all of which are adjustable from the power supply itself. And to top it off, all of this comes to you in a solidly built custom aluminum flight case. Great value! Plenty of options. Great Buy! close [-]

by Mahatma Das from Gainesville, Florida
Warm, fat, realistic and bigger than life. I once recorded a hypnotherapy voice over with the Classic and the warm big sounds was extremely pleasing to listen to. When I first got it I recorded a frie... read more [+]nd playing acoustic guitar and when I played it back it was as if the guitar player was playing live in my room. When I record my friend's vocals they always say they love the sound and they don't get that sound at other studios. December 15, 2006 Music Background: Self taught semi pro. Have spent years and thousands of dollars on music and recording. The best way I can describe it is that it has a very large, realistic and soothing sound and stands out from many other mics. close [-] Hey Cornelius
by whoomusic from Pa.
Hey Cornelius, me thinks your mic had something wrong with it. And as far as seeing these in pro studios, wrong again. You can't go wrong with this mic. The low end is smooth the mids sit beatifully a... read more [+]nd the highs are silk. So I guess you think the mix mag review was a lot of bull? Before you tell all these people to spend all their $$ on the high dollar mics, know what you're talking about. Your review was based on the one mic you have or most likely had and probably sold for a profit... Rode put a lifetime warranty on their beautiful microphone and will honor that warranty promptly. What you shouldhave done is send it back and let them look at it and fix the low end problem cause that's what it was, a problem. Hate to be so harsh but your review of this mic was totally unfair. close [-]
