Certainly no Shure thing

Smooooth 26.06.2017

Hefty in the hand if not in the ears. The case provided is quaint, and the cable reliable. Something nearer to an SM57 than a 58, though I use 'near' liberally. Certainly more liberally than one should use these in the studio. Now, for the price, they are fantastic ? but without that qualifier three stars at best. No good on an amp, instead I personally use these as a secondary mic for acoustic guitars. They do however have a peculiar proficiency when up close on a double bass, so if one can't afford a specialised clip-on for their upright perhaps these are worth a try. Solid build, in any case, so not likely to need replacement any time soon.

Just perfect

Ottavio 30.01.2018

For a microphone this cheap I was actually surprised by the quality.

Little bit sensitive to feedback but just settle in the right position and the problem is solved.

Definitely Recommended.

Probably stick with the MB 85

drdolittle 15.12.2015

I have a couple of mics from Thomann - this one I bought as a "give to the pubic" mic for anyone who wants to get up an sing a number at an acoustic session. The problem I have with it is that it carries over a lot of "mic handling noise" particular if your crooner is wearing rings. Also the overall output sound character is a bit on the tinny side. For the money it does what I want and I don't have to stress if it gets dropped or swung around- but for an extra ¤5 you get a lot more performance if you go up to the MB 85 in my opinion.

extremely good mic

Moris C. 04.09.2013

I am all time shure hater. When I gig and the sound technician has only shure mics I get sick. I am always looking for a microphone that has bright sound, high output and has good apearence.

This mic looks very cheap, the body is so-so. Looks like it is a microphone you would buy to your five year old daughter when she sings karaoke. But believe me this microphone sounds good LIVE!!! It has very strong, bright and powerfull sound.
I don't actually know if the capsule is neodymium but it certainly feels that way. I don't have any problem with feedback and the size of the mic is another plus. It feels like you are holding a pro mic and not a toy.
Only thing that is a bit annoying is this blue rubber ring. It goes off all the time and it is hard to get it into place. And it looks really like a joke, I took it off.

I love the flat top or head of the microphone. It is very practical when you play in a small pubs and if a dancer gets into your face the microphone wont break you front teeth like the ones with round top.

What is really important in live situations is that a mic has a good output so you don't have to add much gain on the console. Adding much gain will bring some nasty noise and probably put your console and speakers on a red light/distortion.
So having a good output is crucial for a microphone. This one has it!

Again it doesn't look so professional but it sounds good and I didn't experience any issues when it comes to the sound or functionality with this microphone. I could trade easy all my sm58's with a couple of these.
