[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 33487, member: 46"] Re: Heil RC35 capsule for Shure UR systems. Caleb, I've used the AE5400 plenty including on gigs where the PR35s were also in use. All I can say is different strokes for different folks. The 5400 is an excellent mic, but so is the PR35. They do have different tonal characteristics, and not everyone's voice is best suited by a single mic. Let's not forget that the Heil has a significantly lower cost than some of the other mics it is in a similar performance class to.... The RC35 capsule to stick on existing Shure transmitters that Void mentions is only about $250...... To get into something like a Shure KSM9 Wireless rig you're looking at 3K(ish) and while the KSM9 is a nice mic, it is in my opinion only marginally better than the Heil. My point is this - the Heil is a good mic and an excellent bang for the buck. Sure, there may be other mics that you may or may not prefer, but few that are on par or better than the PR35 exist anywhere near its price point, including the AE5400 which is typically $100-120 more than the Heil.
