Haven't tested any of these yet, but thanks a lot, ENGL Fireball 60w is a very good practicing amp.
One question thought. The Sennheiser mic, e609, is it the original or the new silver version. Tons of difference in voicing there.
Hi Sleepdead,
it's the black one. I have two of these, they are a great addition to a SM or Beta57. I used one as the only mic tied witha cablestrap to the grille of my ENGL cab for IEM purposes and it worked really well. I never used it without anothe mic when recording, though. I did some profiles using the e609 as the only mic, the profiles lack a bit of overall presence compared to the ones done with a 57 next to it.
