Hello, The Majave MA50 was actually on my list before I upgraded a few years ago. When I bring another mic into the locker, I will definitely be considering it again.

Hi. Okay, thank you very much. That is exactly the sort of feedback I'm looking for. After going through the files in the Sweetwater microphone shootout today, doing a blind test of sorts, I realized that my ears have expensive freaking taste! I chose the U87, Miktech, telafunken, Lauten Audio Clarion, and the manley reference gold. Now back to reality where none of those are going to be in the cards right now. It's got to be five hundred or less. I did find one other microphone that stood out for me though... The Majave MA50. Any thoughts on that one? Cameron.
