E604 : Small but perfectly formed!

11 years ago

Having both read various reviews of different mic options in the Eur100 budget mark and taken guidance from experienced live tour engineers, I opted for three of these mics for 2 rack and a floor tom.

The combination of a solid, predictable sound from a very modestly sized mic together with a simple, robust clip on attachment makes for a winning combination at the price.

The build quality is impressive too - although only a dozen or so shows old, a couple of them are bearing tiny stick marks from wayward drummers (!) but their performance is unaffected.

I've no previous experiences with alternative options to offer by way of comparison but as a newcomer I'd highly recommend these mics as a great starting point for live drum sounds!
