Hey everyone. I found this mic for sale (Rode NTK used) w/ shock mount, cable and case for $385. I remember using a Rode mic in a studio years ago, and thought it was great, but don't remember the model. Any thoughts?thanksJustin

Hey Justin, I've had one of these and it's a good mic. When out of necessity I had to get rid of some mics I let it go because on my voice a MXL V69m sounds better (although not as quiet) at $300 new. I've used about every mic under the sun & if you swap out the Chinese tube in a MXL V69 with a Mullard NOS it's sounds about as good as anything I've ever used . . . just a tad on the noisey side though. And of course it seems every mic takes on a different character with every pre-amp which makes it even tougher recommending particular mics . . . BUT the NTK is good.

Hi Mather, The NTK is a good mic. A friend of mine used one for a guitar/vocal demo a little while ago and I thought the results were great. The price is consistant with what they are going for here in Canada. In fact, it looks like a pretty good deal. Just make sure you give it a try before you lay out the cash for it if it is used......just to make sure it hasn't been dropped!

Thanks guys, appreciate it!Justin

That's my main mic. Got one hanging from a mic stand right next to me. I think I paid like $600 for it new about 6 years ago and it still sounds good to me.
