Yeah, now that you mention it, you're right. When I wrote the first post I didn't have the mic in front of me and I couldn't remember the make and model. I should have added that information later, sorry. So this is a known problem with the B-5, or just Behringer is unreliable in general?

It sounds like you're not too saddened by the complete destruction of the microphone that I imposed by my disassembly procedures? lol

I don't know about the b-5, but like many of us i've had my fair share of behringer products, some of them worked, some of them didn't. About 50-50.

I can't speak for anyone else on here, but when it comes to Behringer, I am all for wiping every product ever made by that company off the face of the planet.. I may send you the 5 pair of broken Behringer headphones that we have stored away at my studio for further torture..

Sure, I'll swap you for the guitar effect pedals which work sometimes but mostly just add white noise. Please, people, never try to use these live...

I think it's a bot, quoting "by lionaudio » Mon 31.12.07, 2:48 pm" above.

That or it's a zombie, resurrecting as it did this thread. :biggergrin:

I generally wouldn't use a pipe cutter to disassemble a Behringer mic.

I prefer to use a hammer, or perhaps a large rock.
