There was a microphone by Beyer called the
Beyer Soundstar MKII or Model 400 (M400)
which has VERY similar sound to a SM7.
(much smoother than a 57 or 58)
Less than half the price typically used, and it can be easily used as a hand held. Also takes less mic pre gain than the SM7 needs.
Personally haven't bothered with getting a SM7 as a result.
BTW Harvey Gerst's studio has 3(!) of them, including one that used to be mine.
They love 'em on metal screamers.
