Just my take on it.
I doubt it... It doesnt matter how much a mic cost... if it doesnt get the job done, it wont get any love. Those who have use for it, will use it despite how much it might cost.

There is a reason the Sony 800 gets a lot of use, and thats because its actually good. I have worked with a lot of different vocalist, and overall it has been one of the most useful mics on more vocalists than any other mic I have used.

I dont know anyone doing music who would just go out and buy a product over another one based on price, professionals are more critical of their choices than wanna-bees or hobbyists. I still think sometimes that urban music makers get more looked down upon and stereo-typed more than others working on any other genre of music. If its not BS about beatmakers needing to stop sampling, its something else.
