[QUOTE="Brian Bolly, post: 215393, member: 32"] For bass drum use, the Beta91A is as close to the original SM91/A as you'll get (The original B91 was garbage, IMO) and it fixes all the issues of the SM91/A - no external preamp, no TA3 cable, and heavier so it doesn't move around as much. I kept an original SM91A/ILP-1 for nostalgia's sake, but it hasn't seen the light of day in years, and will move to studio only duty shortly. But to answer your questions: Yes, you can use the RPM626 with the SM91 and SM98 (and likely 819, but I never tried it with that one). I don't recall if it sounded the same - I seem to remember it was at least close, or I wouldn't have used it. it is also what Shure recommends as a replacement (or RPM628, which is the RPM626 in a kit with the TA3 cable). The real replacement is the Beta 91A, and it's worth every penny of not having to deal with the TA3 cable and the external preamp. [/QUOTE]
