I'm looking for a good mic for getting smooth, airy vocals for r&b.
I already have the SE Icis, and I like it. However, some times it can get "sharp" in the high end.

I was able to check out the soundelux u95 in a session the other day, and I really liked the sound. It was more smooth then the icis, but a bit too sibilant some times. I heard they improved this in the soundelux u99...

Overall, I liked the soundelux u95, and I'm looking for a similar mic.

It has to be really smooth, with a clear, airy high end, that is round and pleasant, and not too sibilant!

Any mic suggestion?
