"Aw, come on guys, not EVERY Chinese mic is bad."
It's true. The Law of Averages is against that. At some point, one of them has to be good.

Geez, I had a chance to buy a brand new 414B-ULS for $400, when a nearby music dealer went out of business. I listened to it for several days, then gave it back. I thought it was just as harsh as the Chinese mics people criticize here.
As far as Chinese mics, yeah, my first impression was that they were all shitty, with peaky high ends.
But, after trying a lot of different Chinese mics, my first impression changed. I found some really nice mics that didn't have that shrill sound and I'm happy to report that they were consistent in quality, since I tried several of the same model.
So yeah, I've got some Chinese mics here, and I'm not ashamed of it.
