That would depend on your standards and the tone for which you're searching. One man's ceiling is another man's floor... whether it's your ceiling or your floor will be a personal decision that only you and you alone will be able to determine.

I would recommend you try one against a few other choices that fall within your budget range and pick the one that seems to work best with your style of recording as your new "favorite tool".

Sorry, wish I could tell you that it will shit ice cream for you [and it might] but anyone who gives any kind of blanket statement about any tool as subjective as a microphone is either brutally inexperienced or just a general purpose fool.

Best of luck with your search.
