In Reply to: Need a good stereo mic pair for under $500... posted by Penguin on February 23, 2002 at 10:12:24:
$500 certainly rules out good condensers or ribbons. As far a dynamics go, If I limited myself to Classical and solo I would look for a pair of Electro Voice RE55. You might be able to find two used ones. Their response is super flat and would be even good for pipe organ work. Their omnis so you need to space them about 12 feet apart. If your interested in solo then I would go cardiod, probably two Electro Voice RE15. Dynamics will give you a quiter noise floor. The Sennheiser MD421 is also a good mic but I think their price is getting up there. All the best! James
