For me, the KM's just have a depth and silkiness that the AKGs lack. The AKG is still a fine mic, but there is an immediacy and presence to the sound of the Neumanns that you don't get with the AKG.

In some instances, I do prefer the AKGs. Some acoustic guitars respond better to it, as well as some snare drums. It's nice to have both in your arsenal!!
