Audix i5
Nov 3rd 2010Great sounding snare mic!

great product
Sep 23rd 2010A good alternative to an SM 57 with a slightly different flavor. I am not going to say better but different indeed. Great all purpose mic but really shines on a guitar cab.

Throw away your 57
Nov 27th 2009This mic sounds basically like a 57 but better. It's more opened, wider sounding. It's easier to mix. It's going to become a classic for sure.
