B3 : Reliable and low-cost microphone

12 years ago

I bought two of them to make a stereo couple and I like them. I've used them to record pianos, guitars, voices, effects for movies, as overhead for drums. They are quite versatile, thanks to their good frequency response and their three polar patterns, which allows you many different options to make a stereo couple. They have a high-medium boost, so they sound pretty good on instruments that are a bit dark or on sources that require to have an increased presence. Their internal noise is really low (14 dBA); some very expensive microphones don't even have an internal noise that low! The shock mount is excellent and the microphone is sold with a classy wooden box that protects the microphone very well when not used.

In my opinion, the quality, reliability and versatility of these microphones are amazing for that price.
