CORRECTION: I misstated the specifications. This mic has an impedance of 600-ohms (not 400 ohms), and it has a frequency response of 30Hz - 15kHz (not 50hz - 16kHz). Sorry for this error.

@@charlessmyth I have used the 105 for many years. It is a fantastic sounding mic, with an especially smooth midrange. Note that by comparison to a B58, it is quite a bit less directional. On a loud stage it might not be usable for some purposes, such as live recording. Fortunately stage volumes have come way down with IEMs but it’s something to be aware of.

Also much love for your work on these mic reviews. To do a video of this depth and extensive on all these microphones takes a LOT of time and hard work. Really super appreciated! :D

The mic comparison sections are always my favorite. Very useful. Very much appreciated.

I did finish watching all 17 comparisons, I swear. Now your voice still echoes in my brain. Impressive work.

This channel has been so helpful & entertaining. This specific review has so many mics that I've considered. Thank you Bandrew

Thank you for this review. As a jazz singer with a full baritone voice, this may be what I’ve been looking for as a stage mic that can add brightness without excess sibilance or harshness in the upper frequencies. Again thanks.

Really, really liked the MA-D on Acoustic guitar. Punchy, great clarity, all detail was there and well-balanced. Thanks, Bandrew!

The 105 is close to magic. Curiously, many singers don’t like it. For me it is the perfect starting point, responds to small EQ tweaks. It might not be the best choice on a screaming stage, re rejection.

I actually really like this one. Has more top end clarity than a lot of these other mics (especially the SM58, which I wasn't expecting). However, having more treble doesn't make it fatiguing to listen to like some crazy clear condensers. Solid mic IMO.

Of course I watched the whole thing!! Best reviews ever!

Gracias. Excelente comparison

The MAD sounds really impressive for what it costs! Almost all the other microphones below in price, and also some above it - maybe except the Audio Technica - sounded like toys in comparison. Sadly it seems like you can't buy it in EU (or you get it only imported which raises the price by a mile), but this is the best "affordable" dynamic microphone I've ever heard. Edit: 8 months later I actually bought one cause I saw a really good offer, thanks Bandrew!

Really like the Earthworks one it sounds lovely.

I would've loved to have heard it against Sennheiser's e945 and EV's ND96 and RE 520 as well, But then you might've actually ran out of words at that point. Haha.

I'm watching a video from Japan. This video shows how great the V7 is. The 201-fet could compete with the U87Ai as a condenser microphone, but the dynamic microphone was disappointing. You don't need such a sensitive dynamic mic.

At the small club I work at I allways have to scoop out a lot of 500 hz so I think this mic would really shine. I've gotten the V7 and are really happy with it as it really helps getting the vocalist to push through. For every other aplication though I feel like the Beta58 would be a safer and better choice unless you wanna pay up for the neumann but I also really enjoied the sound of the beyerdynamics!

If you're often cutting those lower mids, I'd give EV's ND96 a hard look then, It has a voicing switch that helps cut some of those mid frequencies in that range, and has excellent noise rejection. It's become a goto of mine on vocal and even snare drums as well. And I did use it on a rack tom recently with good success.

Give up V7. Only MAD.

The Sennheiser E835, Lewitt MTP250 and Audix OM2 are known for having bright, boosted high frequenties, but they all sounded less in comparisment to the Mojave. The SE V7 is still my favourite, Rode M1 next. Neumann KMS105 sounds better then those two, but is on another level. And yes, these comparisments are very helpfull and I listened them all.

Am I mad about the MA-D? Mehhhh. This comparison just strengthens my affirmation regarding how good the sE V7 sounds. Thanks, Bandrew

Was looking at this for my e865. Think I got a winner. It reminds me of the HEIL mics in terms of clarity but without the overly presence sounding profile.

Wow. Super impressive. Think this will replace my 835s

Any idea how this would compare to the Sennheiser e935? The MA-D and the Beyerdynamic were my two favs.

Not MA-D with how the mic sounds. The comparison section though a tonne of work for you is where the gold is and it was surprising how clear the mic was. It would probably pick out all the annoying things in my voice but I'd definitely enjoy listening to other people using this mic.

Sounds better than the Sm58, But not better than the V7 to my ears. The MA-D sounds good on instruments but i'm not a fan of what it does to vocals. I do find the way vocals sound sharp but might be nice for vocalists who need a mic that's "easy to work".

I’m one of the two! 😉 Thanks!

SE V7 - still undefeated

I need a good microphone recommendation for a wedding ceremony microphone. I've been using a Shure Beta58 but I feel like there is a better sounding microphone, and something that still sounds great for people with poor microphone skills(off axis).

Id like to hear what this sounds like as a kick out mic paired with a sub mic. Seems kind of ideal 😮

The AKG D5 is incredible for the money, to me it was the best sounding without spending several hundred dollars

There's a lot to choose from at that price :-)

*sE Electrs V7 is my favorite*

I think my favorite was the preantepenultimate microphone.

Hi, what dynamic mic would you recommend for streaming? Budget 100$ I want best possible sound quality, not tonality, because ill use EQ anyway.

If you prefer the sound of this to other handheld dynamics/condesners, then I think it would be fine for that. Unfortunately, I don't work in a venue or have a PA so I'm not able to test it in that environment.

A little too much sibilance and way too much handling noise for me. I prefer almost all of the other microphones over it, except for the SM58.
