Sorry guys in posting such a slow reply!!
There was nothing replied for a day or so, so I thought maybe my question was too basic or something.

Anyways I'm using a Rode NT2000.
I sort of like it, but not love it - its low noise and good "all round".

Thanks Kafka for the tip about going to the studios - I didn't fill you in but I have worked in Australia (I'm now in LA) at dozens of studios - the mic of choice is the 416, couple of Rode Tube mics, a Blue here and there, a lot of Audio Technicas and AKG's.
90% are 416 though.

I got the NT2000 because it was the best value for money at the time. (c $600 v $1400 for 416)
I have always wanted a Sennhessier 416 - so ultimately thats what I will get.
I know it wasn't designed for vo - but it likes me.

Thanks so much for all your replies - once again I'm pretty confused.

A lot of vo artists seem to recommend John Hardy, GR and Avalon.

I used the Avalon and was very impressed with it.

Neves keep coming up a lot with you guys.....I'll look into that too!

The Focusrite ISA 430 was recommended to me by an ADR guy who said it was a great all in one solution.

Thanks so much, sorry I was slow I am typing as fast as I can!!!
