Seroius Thoughts On Rode Mics

Anyone using the matched M5 pencil mics by Rode I think the set goes for $200.00 US

    I did not, but I had a Rode X/Y mic which is said to have the same capsules.
    I used it for drum overheads. It was not overly bright, kinda smooth sounding.

    Their customer service is outstanding.

    I had (have) an NT1A that got soaked in a flood and quit working. I contacted them, TOLD THEM IT GOT SUBMERGED, and asked them if it could be fixed and for how much. They told me to send it in and they sent me a new one.

    Bought an NT1A a couple years ago and never looked back.  Future investments will be Rode products.

    I've got a 19 yrs old NT1-A, that's in as good shape now as when it was new.
    I've also used lots of Røde mics for live purposes. Drums, vocs, cabs etc.
    Built to last, it seems
    All the best.
