+1 for the Oktava 012!
and ++1 for the Shure SM81 (if you can find a used one under $200)
IMHO...Some other mics worth considering in this $200 budget range...(We're talking singles here and not pairs).
- Kel Audio HM-1 (SDC)
- Audio Technica AT3035 (LDC)
- Audio Technica AT3031 (SDC)
- Studio Projects B-1 (LDC)
Just to name a few.
Something to keep in mind amigo... careful mic placement is probably 75%-85% of your sound, regardless of what mic you use. Don't be afraid to put the cans on and move your mic around until you HEAR a nice sweet spot.
Regards
