    • The Ultimate Multi purpose Studio Microphone it lives up to the Hype and More.
Color: Gray Pattern Name: Microphone
i was able to finally purchase a couple of these last year as they were on my long time wish list being a 26 year radio DJ veteran the station where I do my shows still have the same RE20 mic in the studio they had when I first began in 1996 ( the label lists Electro voice being in Buchanan Michigan while the current label lists Burnsville Minnesota) their Mic still works and sounds great considering its age and for me there is no substitute for Good Quality when you buy an RE 20 keep in mind You're paying more for Quality And not so much for Advertising and to me its well worth the Investment just make sure you take The Best care of this Microphone and it will always be reliable I love my EV mics so much I replaced all the cheaper copycats with them they work well with voices and instruments hence its versatility I Highly recommend The RE20 it is pricey but worth it and if you can get it on sale ( which happens on occasion) thats the best time to get one or two UPDATE 9-30-2021 after a year I'm still very Happy with my RE20s as a seasoned Radio and Pro audio geek I can say by experience This is the very best mic you can get for the money and in my experience no cheaper copy cat mic can ever come close to the EV RE series ( my favorites being this and The omnidirectional 635 A and it's longer handle version) ANOTHER UPDATE 7-20-2023 Since my last review I bought a couple more of these I continue to have excellent results with this very fine microphone the RE20 Is permanently my daily driver in my home studio and I expect them to outlive me and I hope to pass them down to my Grandchildren someday as souvenirs of my years of radio and recording hopefully that will be Many Many years away but meanwhile I will continue using this versatile tool very gladly. ... show more

    • Very versatile mic
Color: Gray Pattern Name: Microphone
This is an incredibly versatile microphone. It’s great for vocals and I even use it for acoustic guitar. Proximity effect is non-existent. It is gain hungry, you don’t necessarily need a Cloudlifter for it but I do use a FetHead with it just to keep the noise floor low. The only issues you may have with it is that its a very heavy microphone and you’ll probably need to adjust the included clip to be tighter so it doesn’t move once you’ve angled it and you’ll want a quality mic stand that won’t topple over with a heavy mic on it. Otherwise this thing is built to withstand a nuclear blast and is great for just about any situation in an untreated room. ... show more

    • Love at 1st...hearing?
I am an independent hip hop producer/ artist. I love this mic because of its versatility. It's gonna capture those lower freqs on the vocals much better than the staple home studio MXL900 mic. It seems a favorite in the hip hop world...at least for beginners. I added the RE20 into the mix with a AKG Perception 100 (which really does no justice for lows). When used together as an acoustic equalization...very nice sounds. Back to the RE20... If the vocalist has a high voice, its a great mic and if the vocalist has a more bassy voice...its a great mic. You might be using a rolloff a bit though as it seems to capture those freqs well. As it advertises, you can get all up in the mic as most rappers do. I emphasize rappers because the abrasiveness of the style in its attack. I am currently powered by an M-Audio Ultra Track preamp...which as a 45db gain on it. Many say the RE20 will need a really high boost. I'm not going to agree. With the preamp I'm using, the pot is turned up a little passed the half way mark, leaving plenty of head room. As you can see, its construction is also worthy of the title "workhorse". I hate the default mic holder, though...so wimpy and non adjustable. While the fancy upgrade does look a lot nicer and is more secure, you CAN find the right angle to place the mic w/o it falling over. This kinda depends on you needs for mic placement. If you need the mic to be parallel to the ground...get the upgrade. If you can work with the mic at a 45 degree angle, pointing upward..the stand holder will work. As for the price...GREATNESS!...Some of the other sites are asking for $700-$800. Craziness. Thank you AMAZON.com Guy Shifty ... show more

    • Fantastic broadcasting mic
Color: Gray Pattern Name: Microphone
This mic has been a staple for pro broadcasting since 1968. To this day these mics are still found in radio stations throughout the country and for good reason. The fullness of these mics are fantastic and the clarity is pristine. It has a really nice midrange frequency. I have a youtube channel called "Life Afterlife Paranormal Podcast" and this is my favorite mic now. I was using a vintage Rode NT1 which is a fantastic mic on its own but I prefer this mic over the vintage NT1. I also purchased the shock mount for it which is very large but has a great look and works well. I would definitely recommend this mic for a podcast, voice over work or live broadcasting. Excellent mic and has a great look too! ... show more

    • Definitely a hefty mic, but produces amazing sound
Color: Gray Pattern Name: Microphone
This mic is HEAVY, but it is 100% worth it, as the sound quality is MILES beyond anything you can get on a gaming headset. 100% recommend to any streamer, musician, or voice actor.

    • Nice microphone, but...
Color: Gray Pattern Name: Microphone
Excellent microphone but I didn't care for the sound of it on my voice. But microphones are like that...you have to find the right sonic fit for your voice. I prefer the RE-27.
