[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 88534, member: 52"] Re: Would you buy this product? Phil, Funny, in the years that I regularly used SM58, I never found the mic to have an issue at 500 Hz, though there are particular voices or speakers with a problem there. Been a long time since I used an SM58, perhaps the frequency response has been changed from the "good old days". Nearly all dynamic cardioid mics have a low frequency proximity effect when used close, a large increase of frequencies in the 125-200 Hz range, getting rid of that could almost be a "one size fit all" de-mudder. However, if a PA had no EQ, and the proximity effect was an issue, I'd just use an EV RE series "variable D" (no proximic effect) or SM 54 mic. If a barrel connector was passive (can't rely on a no EQ pa to have phantom) and had a 6 or 8 position dip switch that could notch out various frequencies for cheap, I'd consider it. If I were in need of such a product, I'd be more inclined to use a much more flexible $25 EQ and a couple of XLR-1/4" adapters already in my kit: [/QUOTE]
