Profesional results on a budget

Best mic

This is my best choice :) The price of this mic was perfect. Good brand. Very good response of this mic. Perfect for my home studio! So far the mic is solid and no regrets about that purchase! Maybe one of the best for this amount! Recommend for sure if you are looking for something reliable and solid, well made and at this price range!

Great mic for price!

Can't complain about this mic for the price. I tested it straight away and was surprised by the clarity. I was looking for something to capture the hidden quantities in vocals that dynamic mics were missing. I got just what I wanted. I would say it is great for a studio. I've done some recording with it but my ears might not notice the difference between this and let's say a nuemann but compared to an sm58 it's worlds apart!

Good sound for little money

The microphone is not perfect, but it is the best in this price category, you can freely work with it. Build quality is excellent. You need to know the purpose for which you take this microphone. For this money, I got more than I wanted.

Must have condenser mic for entry level

I don't record vocals. I have tried this mic on many different purposes and had great results in all of them. Including percussion, acoustic guitar, field recording, amp micing etc. Once you know the overall characteristics of the mic, which takes some time, it is then easy to find the optimal way to use it for your purposes.

The build quality is fantastic. I wish it came with a better box though.

Great mic!

Really good mic with great, sensible response. Also very sturdy, when my mic stand broke and it fell to the ground it resulted only in some bruising. Quality looks and feels really tremendous, nice, heavy feeling of something that was carefully manufactured. The mic two switches are a nice little addition, but I have not happend to use them too often so far, but better to have them than to have not. Would recommand the mic to anybody. Especially for the price.

Excelent microphone - very durable

This microphone has sustained very very heavy usage, It has survived everything, and it still works perfect. Sound is pristine and excellent, especially for this price.

You can use it to record anything, from voice, guitars, amps, it is literally microphone to go to for anything you need at all.

I have this microphone for like 10 years now, use it for everything , and its perfect.

Body durability:

It is made from metal, it can sustain very harsh conditions, and drops on the floor. It is unbreakable.

All the recommendations! Buy it.

Perfect mic for home studio

If you are purchasing condenser mic for your home studio forget all those super-cheap Chinese mics. With less than hundred Euros you can get good mic which is usable in many purposes, such as vocals, percussions or even recording acoustic guitar or other instruments.

Pros:

* Robust

* Low noise

* Accurate warm sound.

* Pad and low cut switches

* Price

Cons:

* Doesn't come with a cradle, just a mic stand adapter.

Price/Performance Microphone

I am using the AKG P120's for basic podcasts and home studio recording. Considering the price it is really a quality product.

Pros: Nice build quality. Good sound. For this price range, there is no competition against P120's.

Cons: It sounds good but not perfect. Sounds a bit compressed but it's okay considering the price.

I would recommend this microphone for home studio purposes, podcasts, guitar and vocal recordings.
