We're using in a church worship service, one for picking up spoken voice and one for picking up an acoustic guitar and variously also our children's choir.

Both microphones work excellently, have nice clear noise-free sound, pick up even children's voices quite nicely without having to overdrive the sound system, and appear to be fairly solidly built.

My only disappointment with them is the AT2020 side-address condenser - I thought that it work as a mic from either side, but it is unidirectional. There was nothing in the advertising telling me that it should work from both sides, it was just an assumption I made, which assumption comes from the fact that I know very little about microphones. Perhaps it's a known fact that "side-address" means one side only, I don't know.

I don't offer that as a complaint, only as a helpful guide in case someone else who doesn't know much about microphones is wondering how it works.

As I said, sound-quality-wise, these are both wonderful, and we're getting another set for the church.

The AT2020 and AT2021 condenser microphones included in this package are simply great quality. The microphones are very durable and aren't cheap like many microphones at this price level. They sound really clear and fresh, which is a relief upgrade from my old Logitech [ew] microphones.

The 2020 produces rich sounding vocals through my Roland AC60 Amplifier. I even took the mic to the bathroom to capture the natural re verb of other rooms and the results were excellent. I opted to spend the extra $40-50 on the small diaphragm condenser 2021. This was a good choice because it sounds absolutely awesome while miked up to my acoustic guitar.

True, there are much, much more high quality condenser microphones available on the market. But, ladies and gentlemen, for this price it isn't going to get much better! Best bang for the buck. 5/5!

the AT2020 is great for voice, the 2021 for guitars,etc the combo price just makes the quality for price untouchable. I use the AT2021 for passivly recording groups in a room sometimes, the tiny size and solid construction makes it a take anywhere mike

These are darned nice mics. For about $1000 more per mic, you could start getting better mics, but not a whole lot better.

The Harmon Kardon product like, which includes Audio Technica, Has some awfully nice stuff at reasonable prices. From this family, I also have an HK 3490 amplifier which is also a superb piece of equipment. These guys make ADC, dbx, Infinity, JBL, Crown and others so I surmise that they know their way around audio.

I have been using these mics for about six months recording a grand piano and I am very impressed.

These two microphones have impeccable quality for their cost.
I highly recommend these mics to any new musician, youtuber
wanting better audio, or anything like that.

This mic package fell perfectly into my price range and I decided to try them out, and I've got to say, they get they job done in my simple home studio. I'm glad I got them.

I've been using these two mics in my home studio for a few years now and have had great results. Unless you're willing to spend upwards of $1,000.00 (i.e. AKG C414 XLS) I think you will be hard pressed to find a better bargain in a mic package. I utilize my AT2020 for recording vocals and acoustic guitar tracks, and find the AT2021 is great for amp cabinet recording. I run both of these through an Art Tube MP Tube Mic Preamp with 48V Phantom Power (another fantastic bargain--you can find them in the $30.00 to $40.00 range) and then into my recording console. After 3 years of studio use these mics seem no worse for the wear--if anything they may sound a little warmer. Happy recording!

I purchased these mics based on reviews I read in a book and a couple of magazine reviews. I have a home recording studio and am building a decent mic locker. For this price you wouold be silly not to buy this package. They sound great and are as good as mics that cost $400 or $500 easily. AT makes highly respected gear and the AT 2020 is great for vocals and the AT2021 small diaphragm captures the nuance of acoustic instruments great. It catches the transients of an acoustic guitar, tambourines, shakers, etc. beautifully.

I choose the Audio Technica AT2041 Studio Microphone Package after doing countless research VIA local music stores, YouTube videos, and music friends, for my little home recording studio and found out I made an excellent choice! I am a professional musician and music teacher and am finally recording my original songs after 25 years. I'm using a Mac Book Pro with Garage Band as a muti-track recorder connected to my M-Audio Pro digital interface to record the album along with my various axes i,e. Fender Telecaster Thin Line, Gibson acoustic guitar, Korg electronic keyboard with weighted keys and Roland electric drum kit (For better recording control) Things are going great and if your interested in hearing a sample let me know.
