“I bought this mic and it is so good for the price you would think it cost over 5000. I say this as recently bought a Brauner VM1 Microphone, for those that don’t know about this mic is, just Google it. The v13 holds up against the VM1 and in some cases sounds better depending on the vocalist. My advice is to buy the V13 and test before you buy another tube mic as I am 1000% sure you will be happy with it, plus when you hear it you will ask yourself do you really need to spend 5000 for a mic. At least try it as you will be happy you did!”
