Pro Audio D7 Professional Dynamic Microphone, Chrome

This mic has a crisp and clear sound. No complaints here. One of my favorite microphones.

Incredible. Pricier than an sm58 and sennheiser e835 but worth it.

I’m an AKG convert and stand by this brand 100%. I use this mic on the road and it takes a serious beating. I’ve spilt beer on it, dropped it off stage, and thrown it at my drummer—still works…although I wouldn’t do as do kids!

I bought this because I'm a nerd. I didn't want to just make it easy/lazy, and go with the what's popular, the Shure SM58. What I like about this mic? Well, it's brighter and more accurate than my ATR 2100 IMO, which is exactly the reason I bought it. You pretty much don't really need an extra windscreen or pop filter with this mic. It's actually a challenge to make it pop. What I don't like about this mic. It has a permanent 100 hz high pass filter enabled, that I didn't realize when I ordered it. When I attempted to cancel the order, it was too late, even though the product hadn't even shipped. Which for those of you reading, if you don't already know this, don't ever bother paying for expedited shipping. Amazon generally takes 2, 3, 4 days just to put something in the mail. The other thing I don't like about this mic is it is definitely more sibilant than my ATR 2100, Heil Sound PR 35, Shure WH20, or my Countryman B6 ... but that's OK. Audacity gives you access to free EQ *& de-esser, so.. not that much of an issue really. All-in-all.. this thing does what I expected it to do, sight unseen, having never heard it. But in hindsight, having heard this mic now, I kind of wish I had bought the D5 instead - partially because I'm just curious how it sounds. I suspect it has a bit more in the low end vs the D7. Oh, and it's cheaper, too.

Very helpful Reference mic and with a fethead ends up being way louder than needed. Pics up well and cancels other sounds out, however not as much as I expected. The handling noise is louder than I expected, but I have little to compare it to so that might be relative. You may still want to use a pop filter for plosives, the flat areas though makes it easy where to direct the sound.

I have owned the Sennheiser 935, Lewitt 540, Samson Q7 dynamic mics. This is by far the best to my ears. I have paired this mic with MOGAMI GOLD cable, and Focusrite Liquid Saffire 56 audio interface and it sounds AMAZING.

Excellent microphone at a great price

This is a HOT MIC! You shouldn’t mix this bad boy with sm57/58 because they will get lost in the mix! If you need to be heard this is it. I plugged straight into a Bose roadie system.
