m5oo needs another color in a condenser..any suggestions?
happy with my m500 beyer for vox but would like another color for cheap
reviews just keep me in a circle and i don't have anywhere to test these locally. my voice is med-high gravelly maybe isaac brock?
would one of these better suit me (opinion welcomed), i only know i generally have not liked the majority of mxl's or low end a-t's i have tried with their high-end sheen?
thinking adk hamburg/vienna, oktava mk319, studio projects B1 or maybe Cad 179? trions? apex tube? thanks.

EDIT: duh...it's a ribbon. Never you mind this
What are you using for a preamp or compressor? Sometimes that variable can really color your vox with the same mic.

good question...my preamps are low end but usable...7th circle t15's (2 for the drums) and a focusrite trakmaster. I also use a beyer opus69 for vox and other duties...have lots of dynamics but only mca sp1's pair for drums and don't care tooo much for them on my voice.
maybe just getting too wrapped up in condenser-ness and want something i don't need? but have really liked my voice on a charter oak....which is something i could not buy .... could i?...no! my car cost 1100 bucks!

and oh yeah.....have tried most mxl's except the v69me (intriguing) all of which I only liked the 4000....but feel i could do better. rodes and others in the under $200 ebay range but i know i like'm dark....thats why I was thinking hamburg ..
.. but now im thinking screw it, the beyers are good and would prob. be great with a higher 7th circle pre in the box? eh? eh? just worried abut the m500 lifespan, mine is good but have seen so many people with dead beyer ribbons online...
yup, i think you made me look at my crap with more focus...THANKS!

If you're looking for a dynamic to compliment the M500 than check out the Sennheiser MD441... that's my secret weapon combo for a number of things... both mics are extremely directional and controlled. And the 441 has a better top end than most cheap condensers and takes EQ as well or better than the M500.
Everything louder than everything else.
