Rated 5 out of 5

Excellent microphone...

I use a pair of ME66/K6 with a pair of R0DE NTG-3 similar gun type microphones in a 4 mic array for recording distant wildlife sounds and have made some fantastic recordings of Screech Owls at night with this setup. While the NTG-3 is a comparable mic, the fact that the ME66/K6 has an internal battery instead of requiring phantom power gives the ME66/K6 a definate edge for the same quality of sound. In the future I will purchase the ME66/K6 to replace the NTG-3 mics.
