AUDIX i5 Dynamic Instrument Microphone – Cardioid Pattern, 50 Hz–16 kHz, Handles SPL ≥140 dB, for Snare, Guitar Amps, Brass, Stage & Studio

Well made and solid. Comes with a very thin pop filter built in. Slightly brighter than an SM57. Great all round mic

I took my time and did some pretty extensive research before buying this (my first) mic. Having done about a billion gigs before, but rarely requiring amplification I needed to take the plunge and get my own for a series of recent performances.I play a 1967 Conn Mellophonium. A kind of a bell front French Horn with small bore .500'' trombone like characteristics sound wise (Think Stan Kenton c1967). I have to say that the Audix is absolutely spot on for this horn, whilst not specifically designed for horn use either.The Mellophonium can totally obliterate a band in the wrong hands, delivering some pretty hardcore if potentially nasty power output especially above the staff and above written high C. Exciting certainly, but not always so subtle! This mic took all of this energy easily in its stride, highlighting exactly what I wanted response wise and respecting the rest sound wise. Its incredibly well built and robust plus it looks decent too.Whilst I realise that not many bands like mine feature a Mellophonium, I would nigh on guarantee that the i5 will make a great trombone microphone without a doubt. It is also very sensibly priced I thought for a first purchase like mine.

This is a bonafide professional quality great microphone. Better than an SM57. I have mine right on the cone of a too loud valve guitar amp and it's crystal clear. I'm an Audix convert. Comes with a durable carrying case with enough room for the supplied clip and another microphone. Solid build quality. No scrimping on cheap components here. Absolutely spot on.

I have replaced our Shure SM57 mic on the snare with the Audix and recordings are crisp and clear. I will eventually replace the other SM57 mics used on the toms with this or similar Audix mic.Great quality - great price!

excellent mic!! I would highly recommend this mic. It is versatile, built like a tank and sound great. I have come to prefer it to an SM57, especially on guitars and snare drums

Sm 57 clone..I have very good results on drums with this dynamic microphone..mid priced sm 57 Clone microphone..

These mics have always been in my kit. They are reliable and brilliant for Snare and Guitar's in particular. Plus they are good value compared to SM57s.

Very good, item arrived very quickly. Superb microphone for what it cost. Absolutely no complaints. :-)

Es un buen micrófono, es más corto que la mayoría de dinámicos por lo que se puede acomodar bastante bien en un tambor o amplificador de guitarra.La respuesta de frecuencia le da un carácter moder y casi "pre ecualizado" por lo que en eventos en vivo es muy útil

I was a long time SM57 user and still am, but this mic has replaced it. Wherever I go to sound engineer, I bring this mic as a top snare mic. I’m find myself using less eq since this mic has an eq curve that provides the top end and punch you need. If you are familiar with the SM57, this mic is that and more.

Man sagt gern ein 57er für die die ein 57er wollen ohne eine 57er einsetzen zu wollen.Für mich klingt ein Audix i5 tatsächlich etwas „voller“ mit etwas weniger dem typischen 57er „Mitten Tock“ und gefällt mir an der Snare besser.Ansonsten auch für alles andere zu gebrauchen, Robust und P/L technisch ein richtig guter Tipp und heutzutage auch sehr Ridertauglich.
