1 - An acceptable sound (although not brilliant), with enough chest thump and sounds (relatively) natural. Low end, mid and click are fairly balanced. This is the mic I'd pick for the particular kick.

2 - Sounds like someone thumping a large cardboard box with his fist, with an added rattle.

3 - A bit woolly, with a fair bit of low end and the rattle/click quite pronounced. The second best of the bunch, given the kick. Not natural enough for my tastes.

4 - All click and rattle with no real low end. Ties for last place with 2.

My ranking: 1, 3, 2, 4
