[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 33603, member: 34"] Re: Telefunken M80 A huge +1 to that. It is my favorite snare mic, though it can be a bit large and awkward to place. I would say, even though Green Day and other big bands are using them, that the M80 has no place in rock music, or at least, rock music where loud monitors are expected. Of course, Green Day and the others are on ears, to it doesn't matter for them. The M80 is absolutely fantastic for acoustic and Folk music where the sources are quieter and more dynamic, and where insane monitor levels aren't required. I'd say overall that the M80 has a lot more condenser properties than the usual dynamic mic, which is both good and bad. While it doesn't have as much GBF or wash rejection as my go-to OM series, it sounds a lot better in most cases. Edit: My two M80s came directly from Telefunken and are not part of the test drive - this might be better off in the Product Reviews section. My apologies for the mistake. [/QUOTE]
