Best Mic in my Opinion

This mic is worth the buy, you won't regret it! It is great for vocals. The sound it gives is clean and crisp. Before I got this mic, I used a MXL 990 and that thing was crap, it gave to much bass on my voice. For sure, I'm planning to use this mic for a long time.

Great Overall Mic

I recently purchased 3 of these mics. They were going to be used for a internet radio show that i help run. My plan was to buy higher priced mics for the recording studio. I found myself buying 6 more of these mics for the recording studio as well as a few AKG Perception 400. AKG has great mics and for this price...its WORTH IT! Great sound, bass switch on mic is helpful. Just overall is a great mic.

Excellent mic

i was shopping around for a microphone and i wasn't to sure about the AKG perception 120 because of its price, and being an engineer i needed to find something around my price range and i took the chance with this microphone.I was blown away by how clear the sound was i record all vocals and acoustic guitar with this microphone now.
