    As reviewed by Raul Rodriguez on 5/19/2010

    i used this mic people told me they have it in there studio and told me the sound is good. but when i use it i wasnt that impressed. Did have that nice clear crisp sound on vocals that i was looking for. I'll stay with my Rode NT1A, and Rode NT2K. Now Those mic never let me down since day 1.

  • No expense spared” microphone

    As reviewed by John Moyer on 6/1/2010

    The KSM353 is a ?no expense spared? microphone crafted for pristine audio in studio and concert hall applications. Like the 313, it's also handmade but comes in a tall wooden box that looks like it should hold a delicate astronomical instrument or a nuclear fuel rod. The mic has a highly polished, machined stainless-steel tube containing the double-shielded transformer and ribbon motor rigidly joined together for minimal magnetic and RF interference, lowest noise and highest output. Both sides of the 353 are symmetrical in frequency response to minimize off-axis coloration.Great mic!!!!
