I started playing and singing in bands in 1965, and many years as a sound man; so I've had the opportunity to use a wide variety of mics over the years. The PM9, in my opinion, is one of the best dynamic vocal mics in its price range. Yes, most sound techs try to match the mic to the performer but I find the PM9 consistently among my most used vocal mics. I like the clarity and tone that the mic produces with very little EQ. If a singer has good mic technique this mic, especially at its price point is worth a try.

I can see why top singers use this mic. It's just as good or a little better than my Heil mic. Very clear and handles feedback well. This mic is my go to for live vocal performances.

I was looking for a better microphone, and saw the advertisement for the MikTek PM9. I watched the video samples on Sweetwater and ordered one, because of the depth of sound and broad spectrum of voices, all of which were crystal clear. Man oh man! What a microphone! The sound from just my Fishman amp was just as studio sounding as the videos. It picks up your voice uniformly from a foot away. The mic is quality built, the sound is impeccable. I immediately ordered three more PM9's for our church praise band. Tomorrow will be the first day we use them. I can't wait! This is not just another mic. It is another world of depth of sound!

I jumped on the chance to purchase the Miktek PM9 when the price dropped recently. I have used Beta 58s and Beta 57s for my vocals for many years, and have zero complaints with them, but wanted to try something a little different. The PM9 showed up in several good reviews over the last year, so I kept it on my wish list. I play bass and sing (some lead, tons of BG vocals). I did a side by side immediately with my Beta 57, Beta 58, and the PM9. TBH I heard little difference. But using it live (exclusively for the last 6 weeks at church and rock gigs) the PM9 sounds a little fuller, a little richer to my ears. Leading to me feeling a bit more confident in my singing. So I am a happy user so far. The only slight curveball is that the PM9 has a thicker barrel than my Shure mics, so needs a slightly larger and/or more flexible mic holder. As always Sweetwater service is unmatched.

I'm a keyboardist/lead vocalist. 50 year veteran. I've used Shure 58's, Beta 87, Beta 57, KSM8, then Electro Voice ND767 and ND967. Audio Technica AE6100. There are more but my point is that this mic has a warmth that none of those have. Nice sheen on the top end without being harsh or spitty. Moderate proximity effect but if you know how to work a mic you can use this to your advantage. Seems to have a hotter output than many but you can't get it to feedback! Can't imagine how they accomplish this. I'm playing while I sing so I can't speak to handling noise but this mic will not disappoint you. Great vocal mic and I slapped it on a snare drum for recording with stellar results.
Highly recommended.

What Do Our In-house Gear Experts Think?

Steven Graham

I've been singing in bands for over a decade, and have always had trouble finding a vocal mic with character. The PM9 does a terrific job of not only capturing the nuances of my voice, but also providing a beautifully enhanced signal to the board thanks to its custom transformer. I've taken this mic on tour twice so far, and it's extremely durable. This is my go to mic for all live performances and I cannot reccomend it enough.
