It seems like the ribbon is in wide open on the Naked Eye. Seems a bit dangerously open without any wind stoppage at all. Scares me. Is it a bang for the buck mic though? Stand up to the 121?
I kind of like the SHinybox I have so far, and Wagener seemed to think it was decent too, but we chose the Royer 122v and the Royer 121 over it each time. Go figure. |
And I seem to be choosing the ShinyBox 46 over my R121 on distorted electric guitar these days...go figure.
When I did hear the Naked Eye at TapeOpCon during one of the Potluck Studio sessions I was really impressed when it was compared to an R121. Plus they just look so damn cute.
