Behringer C-2 Stereoset 5-stars Reviews

A great basic mic

Simple, functional, good enough for most jobs, stereo pair, spotting etc. Great value for money with case and accessories.

The best value

I use these mainly as my studio drum overheads but also as a stereo set on concerts where I place them in the back of the venue (of near the FoH) aimed towards the stage to get a general pickup. For these purposes and for this price I can't imagine anything better (granted I'm a video guy and musician, not a sound technician, but there's nothing inherently bothering me about the sound and build quality of this set so the fact that pro level people use pro level equipment doesn't change what this set can do for you if this is what your budget allows)

I was amazed with these mics. It's impossible to get better for the money.

I use them to record choirs

Great for the price.

I used it to record live 5 ppl rock band in AB technique. If you set the volume levels of the instruments on stage well, you can get a very good stereo recording where you can clearly hear all the instruments and their arrangement in the panorama. At this price, I couldn't ask for more. In addition, the small size and included hard case work well for off site recordings. I recommend this set to anyone who wants to have cheap microphones for stereo recordings for e.g. demo materials or better sounding live streams.

Most worth value microphone!

I had used this microphone for several recordings and it sounds more than the price. I will buy more in the future!

Very adequate actaully

For this price, nothing more than perfect. The sound is great when recording. Just go ahead and try them, you'll see

9 Years On

After 9 years of using these, they are still working perfectly, sound was great for the price back then, they essentially half the price now, and 100% worth it. Of course, they're not the best, but for price, you get incredible value, nice travel case with them, secure fitting for mic stand, can certainly take a few bumps and drops and work fine.

No complaints here.

For the price, ridiculous

Amazing for the price, u can record almost anything with it i personally recommend this to any home recorder!!!!

Unbeatable for the price

I've only had a few brief try outs of these but the work really well and did a fine job of recording acoustic guitar with one by the soundhole and one further away. Nicely presented in a good box with accessories.

Very good

I would highly recommend these microphones for recording overhead signals or acoustic guitars.

I was very impressed. Much bang for little money.

So far, so very good.

I’m using these for both recording and playing live. I have a very old Martin Sigma that sounds great acousticly but doesn’t plug in well. These offer the truest amplified sound I’ve achieved and record just as well. Ive even started using them with my Ovation as I liketo combine the sound with the line in. After a month of use, they perform as new. Great value. I assume that the expensive ones are slightly better, but if you use less expensive sound equipment and recording systems as I do, then I doubt you can tell the difference.... neither can 99.9% of the population! As ever, you need to be aware of positioning to avoid feedback, but the 10db cut does help. I thought I was just risking 40 euros to give them a try but the are one of the best purchases I’ve made so far.

great mic set

functions great and love the pad and the high pass on the mic

this is a must get stereo mic set

pro: brilliant

Con: nothing

Great Product

Great microphones - only reason 4 not 5 stars is because they lack a bit of 'oomph' in the lower register. I've been using them to track trumpets sounding pretty solid with some decent EQ processing. These microphones excelled best as a pair in ORTF formation as overheads on the kit. I'm looking forward to trying them out with acoustic guitar too as I've heard they work well in this context.

Amazing quality small diaphragm condensers for the buck!

I was kind of puzzled when my colleague told me how much he payed for this pair. I had to get them, if nothing, to boost my mic library. However, these guys are perfect for stereo recordings of solo instruments in various techniques. Work decent as overheads, too.

I cannot stress enough the quality for the buck ratio of this microphone.

A good buy for buck

Must say, that the mics surprised me a bit. For this price, they do a decent job, but nothing more than that.

Great affordable pair of overheads

I got these mics to closemic ride and hi hat, to have more possibilities in tweaking the sound on post. They work really well and I'm particularly satisfied with the way the hi hat sounds. Wind screen also came useful for the ride cymbal. Same goes for high pass filter.

I always say if you don't have a great room for drum tracking, then you don't need expensive mics and this set of Behringers works perfect in my small drum studio.

Amazing performance for the price

Wasn't expecting much for £16 per mic but I was blown away by the performance. At 1/10th of the price of some of the mid-range models from Shure/AKG/Rode, I would absolutely recommend trying these first.

great product

Very happy with the result I am getting from these mics, especially for the price - Im using them as overheads for a drum set, in XY (using the provided stereo bar) and I am getting very naturally sounding results...

Great mics for great price

I was really curious about this mics, especially because of the good price, so I've ordered it. I can say that this is the best buy I've ever made. The quality for this price is just ridiculously good. I've tested it as OH mics for drum recording and also as second mic for guitar recording in combination with Shure SM57. As I mentioned before, the results are ridiculously good. I'm thinking about buying another pair, to use it for Hi-Hat and Ride.

Great budget microphones

I bought these mikes to record acoustic guitar and I'm impressed.

The quality at such a low price is very good.

I highly recommend them if you are on a low budget
