    I can't speak to the CK1, but I have the cv12 and if it's any gauge of expectation, I felt it performs quite well, compared to a real AKG c12. It's slightly warmer, and doesn't have the same sheen on the top end, but quite good, well worth the money. You can check it out here: http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2768289

    I have the Avantone CK-6 and it's quite nice...has Roll Off and Pad...

    Not great...but really nice for the price range (about $180)
    and it came in a Wooden Case inside an aluminum case with a
    nice shock mount.

    Bang for buck, Avantone makes some nice mics...

    If you want a really nice Mic for not a lot of cash, check out
    the MXL V69 Mogami....$300 and gets praise from some BIG name producers,
    like Terry Brown, who produced Rush...and others...and gets compared to
    the "N" mics a lot...

    Haven't read one single bad review about it...it's on my TO GET list...LOL
