5.0 out of 5 stars As i said before, May 1, 2008

I also reviewed the 3 pack. I believe this is a very good microphone. I'm currently using it for podcasting and the sound quality is unmatched with similarly priced microphones of this type. The unit feels sturdy and well made. I do not feel ever like this product will ever break, and the 10 year warranty only proves that i won't be breaking this any time soon. The Sennheiser is using a much better capsule in my opinion than the shure 57 and 58... Though thats not saying much when those are both of a 50 year old design... I would certainly suggest this to a friend, But if i had the money i'd spend the extra 50 for the e935 but i simply didn't have that. But as far as this one goes its a wonderful mic.

In response to the other comment saying it was.. muffled... I think that person must not have adjusted their levels ... every microphone needs some tweaking towards whatever your doing.. A small amount of eq goes a long way ;-)

2.0 out of 5 stars Senn E835 - muddy, congested mic, July 26, 2010

There are 4 mics to consider in the $100 price category: Sennheiser e835, Shure SM58, Audix OM-2, and AKG D5. I've been doing sound for 10 years. Each has its own faults.

Senn: lower midrange congestion -- like you have a cold, warm-sounding, rolled-off highs. Very muddy sounding, but will add more "body" to your sound.

Shure: cold-sounding mic, highs better than Senns, some mid-range muddiness.

AKG: overall nice sounding mic. Problem when you "push" the mic, i.e. sing loud. Mic feels like it has a delay in it.

Audix: very nice sounding mic. No major sonic problems. Nice, extended highs. It's the shadow of the awesome OM-5 ($250+) which is faster and has even better clarity.

My advice: go with the Audix OM-2, or spend $200+ for an Audix OM-5 or Senn 935. Both high-end mics sound very similar.

I had contemplated buying Shure Sm58's but the e835's equal the job. I use several of them in live sound settings for acoustic instruments and voice. I am very happy.
