I first bought the dark gray mic, liked it so much, I bought another, this time in silver finish. Used for recording vocals and guitar, both singly and in stereo X-Y and ORTF with great results. When playing a gig, I used one mic for voice, the other for acoustic guitar, both in hypercardiod pattern to reduce voice/guitar overlap and external crowd noise, which worked great. Compared to a Shure SM 58, for example, the mic gives my voice more clarity, detail and sparkle, which helps my woolly-voice. Can be used with external phantom power or install a 9v battery and use with internal power, handy for remote recordings or podcasts. Can be used in cardiod pattern or, with included adaptor, in hypercardiod pattern. MIcs are in excellent "+" condition, with no nicks, scratches or blemishes. Packaging has some wear marks. Each mic comes with pattern adaptor, mic stand clip, original user guide and packaging. Dark gray mic has foam pop filter as well. $150 for the pair or $80 each. Ship for $20 each.
