Good For Beginners
I think these mics are awsome for beginner singers or vocalist. It is very good for the price and works well with loud power amps. The mic is very durable and can be used for all kinds of different reasons with music. Digital Referene is a great brand!

Decent microphone for the price
The DR-VX1 Dynamic is a decent microphone. Sound is clear; little feedback as long as you use a quality cable. One main complaint: you have put the microphone too close to your mouth to get a good sound.

Good Sound, but not for hand held vocals.
I bought Digital Reference DR-VX1 Dynamic Cardioid Vocal Microphone on the recommendation from the sales person. It is, and feels very durable in its construction, should stand up to years of abuse. It has good sound for a mic in this price range. I do agree with other reviews that it is probably more of an entry level mic, you have to get very close to it to get a good sound, so don't expect it to be like a SM-58. It has a bright sound, and picks up the highs and lows that you need to sound good enough for most small venues. The only problem I see with the mic, is when you handle it, the chord, or touch the mic stand, you can here every move or sound made. This does not happen with more expensive mics. You cannot hand hold this mic in any way shape or form without it being noticed. I tried recording with it, and did not get very far. Put it on a stand, don't touch it, and sing, and it works great. I'd rate it a solid four stars if it weren't for this. Bottom line, if I was on a tight budget, or in a crunch I'd buy one. It gets used for back up singing sometimes, or mic'ing an amp or drum, but for lead vocals, or general stage use, I'd still take an SM-58 over this any day.

Not bad for the price
For the money, this isn't bad. Handling noise is a little high so it has to be held carefully, but is fine stand mounted. It's robust and has a lively sound but good side rejection so feedback isn't much of a problem. A foam windshield to take the singer a little further away from the capsule helps to reduce proximity effect. Overall a handy mike to have, and strong enough to last a good while. I'd buy it again

Beginner Mic and Nothing More
I bought this mic on a budget because I needed it for my band. It's good for a small band that is just starting out. Sound is ok. A bit of feedback. The grill on the mic isn't very durable. I dropped the mic once and it dented in. This mic is good for back-up vocals. However if your looking for a mic to use live or for lead vocals, I would recommend something else.

dont waste your money
When my old band was just starting out we bought 2 of these. Im in a new band now and we use them, theres sooo much feed back. We cant even turn the PA system loud enough that they can hear me when playing. This is not worth the 50 dollars. i just got the Audix OM2 and that works much better. Although the Digital Reference will do for back up vocals.

Spend your money elsewhere
This microphone cant pick up a man screaming in a 2x2. It sounded ok in the store but when I took it home in about three days it was very little sound in the next three days it broke totally.I didn't abused it but that wires where messed up or something.If you like to buy products that suck this is the microphone for you
