Thrill, Nathan, have you ever used the K2 extensively in a session?

Can you actually comment on it with some real world experience?

No, because you used some vastly more expensive mic and didn't think twice.

So please stay out of the conversation if you have no experience with a product.

Its so easy to rag on a mic because its cheap.

Thrill, you wanna rag on this mic, you gotta try it first in a session. Rag away.

"I don't like this mic because blah blah blah". Fine.

Shitting on a pricetag is bullshit.

Is it the greatest mic ever? Hell no.

Is it an absolute steal for $500?

Yes. In fact, it is a nice mic at any price.

I own two K2s, as well as other well known mics costing upwards of $5000.

Is a $5000 mic 10x better than a $500 one? Nope, sometimes its worse.

Just a little perspective.
