Magne I get it.....I on the other hand do not like the false bass bottom end enhancement associated with Shure. I prefer my Audia Technica mics which give a more realistic natural sound.... well for my voice anyway..... I seldom have to have anything other than flat Eq and the gain never needs to be set as high as my Shure mics which means less feedback and less hum or hiss than the Shure mics tend to produce. The audia Technica are similar in price to their Shure counterparts BUT have a higher spec covering a wider audio spectrum. When considering buying a new mic they are well worth a look.
