“Vocalists usually don’t dwell on microphones like a guitarist would over pedals, pickups and other items, but considering the purest path is the best sounding, a mic that doesn’t get in the way sonically for a vocalist makes sense, and yet seems to get dismissed.”
"DPA microphones are extremely well made and robust, and considering some singers can really abuse a microphone physically, the extra effort that they used in designing this model will pay off, this isn’t a dainty piece.(...)
