Behringer C2 Stereoset

These were purchased primarily for amplifying a mixed choir of about 15 men and women, in an environment which did not really allow for fixed microphones. I set these up on a stand using the supplied bar which allows you to mount a stereo pair on the one stand.

Initially I set this up with both mics pointed directly at the choir. Results were pretty good, with a light, airy quality to the reproduction through the sound desk. However, these really came into their own when I used them as an XY pair, each mic pointing at the opposite corner of where the performers were... this gave a much fuller sound.

These mics have been used regularly over the last 3 years with no issues, despite the stand having to be regularly moved around. I would definitely recommend them.

Great mics ... highly versatile

I bought these to use primarily as 'occasional' drum overheads for my 4, 5 and 9 piece swing, dance and party bands (I have two sets).

The sound quality is great, consequently I have also used them as sectional mics for saxes, trombones and trumpets in my 9-piece and full Big Band setups. Others in the band were very impressed with these mics and went on to buy some for themselves. Great sound, great value ... highly recommended.

Behringer budget Condenser Mics for Drumming

I am using these as overheads for my Accoustic Kit. The reason I went for them was the hight SPL that they can manage, therefore no distortion from Drumming at any level. They are very well presented an come with a good case to keep things together. The Stereo Mic holder and adaptor were very welcome and this works well. At first I through they were a little dull sounding. I switched on the FET stages in them and this has not caused any distortion but has brightened up the sound. To be honest, at the price I think they are a bargain and work very well for me.

Insanely good for the price!

I bought these for use on drum overhead and was very suprised by the sound i got. I bought them with the view that if they weren't what i needed then i could always sell them and that £35 wasn't a massive investment. But theyre my favourite mics for drum overheads in my collection. My past experiences with behinger gear hasnt been great but these seem brilliant.

I also had chance to try these on an acoustic guitar where they didn't perform as well as they had on drum overheads but still produced a very usable sound. They didn't perform very well as a vocal mic but they seem to be an invaluable mic for beginners and anyone working on a budget. Would definitely recommend

Excellent quality.

I have used this stereo set as both overheads for my drum kit, and for micing up a few choirs and orchestras , and the sound is fantastic!

Very durable, excellent build & quality, and all for a reasonable price.

You wont go wrong with investing in a set or two of these!

A great pair of mics for a great price

I was really happy with these mics.

First of all, they come with a handy little adapter that allows you to connect two mics up to a single mic stand for stereo recording. Two mic stand connectors and two windshields are also provided

For the price you couldn't ask for a better matched stereo set of mics.

I used these Mics to record acoustic guitar in XY configuration. I was previously using an M audio nova mic for recording the guitar and i much prefer the sound of these small diaphram condensers. They capture a cleaner and much less muddy sound of the guitar in my opinion.

These mics may not be fit for audiophiles of the highest degree, but they record acoustic guitar with a very nice stereo depth and with little noise. I am very happy to recommend them

Decent sounding mice for price you cant beat!

Worked with 4 pairs in last years. These little things are one of best budget mics available. Of course they are no Neumanns and such but the price/quality ratio is superb. Good, clear, detailed sound, not muddy at all. Features nice low frequency roll off and -10dB cut. Great build quality, nice, strong metal mics. No cheap plastic crap here. Comes with nice transport case, holders and stereo bar, easy to take them on the road.

I have used them on string orchestra, choir, guitars and as drum overheads in live PA setup, also I have used them to record live acoustic concerts and acoustic guitar in home studio. I highly recommend them if you are on low budget or want a decent sounding mic that you can replace not breaking the bank.

Brilliant for £35. I want another set!

I can't rate these enough. We were lent some by a friend. Absolutely spot on for certain jobs :D Used throughout our recent recording. And we use them for live use too... Got us out of some difficult situations where amplifying every individual instrument could have been difficult :D
