Huge step up

Was looking for the right microphones to record our church choir. The recorded sound quality is so much better than we had before. Really pleased we made the investment in these.

Sounds good, so far!

I'm hesitant to review this right now, because I only plugged them in to try them out, but they sound especially clean and quiet. The deal-maker for me was listening to Roads sample recordings of them on You Tube, recording a choir and a string quartet, I believe it was. I also liked some recordings of guitar with them. I'll update this review, if I can, after I've done some real recording with them. Marc Trainor.
