[QUOTE="Localoid, post: 238871"] The MXL 990's don't have much "bottom"... the roll-off starts at something like 250hz or so, if memory serves me correctly. They aren't exactly the quietest mic either, but they are decent. But, most all condenser mics these days (even the $40 a pair variety) are "decent" in terms of sound quality. For just a little more money you can get a lot more mic... and at better prices than Amazon. I can post links if you like. Re: you question about different sorts of mics for voice/guitar... that depends on what mics you're taking about. Yeah, in general, to capture the highs of the guitar you'd use a different sort of mic, but... I'd choose using a pair of matching Rode NT1s or NT5's mics over two different cheaper mics... anyday... But, you see this illustrates the point -- the correct answer to that question really depends on your budget. [/QUOTE]
