I am in a home studio setting, my roof is all redwood so the room I use is already naturally damp. I do balance the drywall surface with a foam shield. I have used several low budget condenser mic's from presonus and mxl, as well as a shure sm58 and 57. the condensers are not good.

I'm using this microphone to record my voice for audio lectures. I'm doing the recording at my desk in my office, which is why I selected a dynamic mic rather than a condenser (to reject ambient noises). The recordings sound great and very clear.

I'm a big fan of Shure and have several 57s, 58s, and 545s that I am quite happy with. But this is in a whole different league. The sound picture is much bigger and it's in tighter focus than with any of the mics I currently use.

I host an open mic and had a pair of SM58 mics. A professional vocalist friend clued me to the e835. I now have 4 e835 mics that we use for vocals at my open mic. They also work well for winds. I kept one 58 for harp (harmonica) players and have a pair of 57 mics for guitars, ukes, etc.

So much better than the Shure I was using. I just use it at home for recording, but it appears sturdy enough to withstand some banging around if you use it to perform out. Fairly narrow pickup pattern, but if you need an even narrower cardiod pattern, the Sennheiser e845 would probably be a good...

Like it a bit better than my old Shure. Pick up from off center is better. Miss the switch capability but other reviewers have noted that the switch wasn't dependable over time.

Sennheiser always is top of the line, so I had no doubts this would be fantastic. And of course it was. I used it while I DJ'd for a crowd of 700. Clear, crisp, and didn't fail once.

I don't really know mics at all. I mostly use them to host open mic nights locally, but I don't sing. I was using some super cheap mics that I thought sounded fairly clear but occasionally noticed how muddy they sounded.

I've been using this mic for 3 months now . I find that it delivers clear crisp sounds and does not flatten out. My people have heard a difference from my previous mic. The construction of this mic is way better than my EV product. I plan on using this product for a long time. DEP

This is a very nice microphone. I'm absolutely happy with it!
