I see the AT5400 showing up on a lot of tours lately and hear people saying a lot of good things about them but the old version is no more, replaced by the newer AE version. Is there any real difference between them?
Audio Technica AE5400 vs. AT5400?

I can't comment on the AT5400 but the AE5400 is an excellent microphone.

Yes, it's a killer voice mic. The AT's are discontinued, as mentioned. The AE's are a bit of a step up in performance although basically the same design and specs.

IRC, the capsules are the same but the preamplifier is different.

Sounds great, picks up a lot more than the voice it's supposed to pick up ;-(

Yea well it's not an OM5 it's a condenser right? I became fond of the KSM9 a few years ago in applications where people wanted to use "the Neumann" but it was completely inappropriate. Like anywhere near a drum kit. Is the 5400 in the same class? If so I may have a KSM9 or two for sale.
