it should be noted at this point that I don't think anyone has much business with $1-3k LDCs anyway (save finding a good old U87i). So, I'm a bit of a nut that way. I don't think that price range adds much to the sub $1k range of LDCs...and so many of the home studio uses for them (vocals...ac Gtr) can be handled better for less by SDCs and LDDs. I think, to an extent, people just feel like they "need" to cut vocals with an LDC...cause their heros do. Yet, you never see their heros singing into ADKs and Pelusos and ATs either--but, they figure they look the same.
LIke I said earlier, I own an old U87, and the 2247 usually beats it out for vocals
