Just started using the Mic and so far I love it

I feel that this is a remarkably full bodied yet very quiet mic. Everything about it (except one thing) is stellar. The one thing is the finish on the grill. Somehow it makes the mic feel a bit cheap when sonically it is anything but. I’m actually temped to disassemble and dull it down a bit, more along the lines of the mics it’s emulating. I love the box, it’s real wood and feels solid (though the red stain feels just a little “Chinese takeout”) and the squirrel cage feels like the original and you even added the base mount clip which is a nice extra, although if it saves money I’d totally say to lose that clip. I’d be surprised if many will use it when they have a real shock mount at their disposal. I’m actually incredibly happy with the mic. I spent over a decade using daily a pair of vintage 67’s and although those were tube this mic has every bit the character and depth that they did. Other than the cosmetic things I mentioned if there was one thing I’d magically change about the mic it would be to give it about 5db more sensitivity so that I wouldn’t need to max my pre (Focusrite Red 7 circa 1997)to get the audio volume I’m looking for on quieter instruments. Overall thank you for creating such a beautiful sounding mic at this price point, it makes my life easier.

Awesome mic. No, really. Very very good. Only little snag was the extra 10 bucks for expedited delivery wasn't worth it as it still took a week to get to us. However, I'd wager that's USPS' fault. Nonetheless, great improvement in vocal quality! (Haven't tried it on instruments yet). Thanks, Dachman Audio!

I’ve never had a microphone this nice before! I got it in the middle of a recording project and I actually considered going back and re-recording everything with it because it made the other tracks sound so inferior. No matter what I did with the EQ, I could not get the previously recorded tracks to come anywhere close to the beautiful sound of this microphone! I am so thankful to have such a fantastic piece of gear!!!!

I own a few neumann mic's I use to own a u87 as well. so I am familiar with the sound of the mic and I must say that you guys got it right!!! I am 110% satisfied with my new go to workhorse.

Quick shipping good packaging. Have not had a chance to use the mic.

It's a great microphone! Dachman did a great job of getting it to me.

The mic is smooth as butter:)
