Back into the video archive for a mic shootout that features some of the mics in our hall of fame.

Having worked in countless studios with some of the best in the business we have spent the last couple of decades compiling what is OUR definitive guide to microphones. Not based on their monetary value, but their VALUE. Whether it be Frank Sinatra or John Williams this list of mics have carved their place in history, in our hearts, and in any discerning mic collection. From the humble SM58 to the mighty M50 we hope you approve of our selection.
