"Not for quiet acoustic recordings"
This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.
Feature:
Switch for roll off and -10dB pad (but not together)
Quality:
There is noticeable hiss when recording quiet passages. I had to use a hiss filter to clean up an acoustic live recording!! The self noise "hiss" is higher than a pair of CAD GXL 1200's that I use for the same application and since hearing the hiss difference I stopped using the C-2's for any quiet recording
Value:
You get want you pay for, another $60 will get you a pair of CAD GXL 1200's that perform better for quiet acoustic recordings.
Desirability:
They look cute but after a while you realize Behringer cut some sound quality corners to reduce the price
Sound:
The mics have a decent low end and required little EQ for recording only slight high end roll off was needed). Not for close vocal
Ease of Use:
Package comes with a stereo mic "bar" and a storage box
Support:
Only emailed Behringer once, they replies in about 3 days and followed up with another email
Overall:
Stopped using these mics for quiet acoustic recordings.
