Best large diaphragm condencer mic under $100?

05-31-2004, 11:06 PM

I'm looking for a large diaphragm studio condencer mic for my home studio.
( one that won't break the bank ) I already have a 48v phantom
power supply. I've been looking at the CAD GXL2200 and the Samson C01.
Anyone have one of these's or can recommend something else in the Under
$100 price range ???

YES!! Thanks to the people's Republic of China ,There are about
a 1/2 dozen or so to chose from in the $50 to $100 price bracket. You can't get a Sennhieser or Rode for that price,But I need something just a little
than a SM 58 for home studio work ( a 58 will set ya back $99)

I got a Behringer for $91, but honestly, I haven't tried it yet.
