OK, so i bumped into this company GLS who is making psudo knock offs of 57's and 58's (actually from what im reading they're closer to the beta 57/58 since they're using neo mags) Reviews I've seen said they're a bit "louder" and brighter than 57's (the loudness may be perceived if its brighter) anyone ever use one of these (i trust the opinions on this form more than any other)
10 mics for $250 made me chuckle a bit

Cant seem to find a freq response chart on the ES... I may get one just to see what its about... every mic has a purpose... it could be a hammer or door stop, but they all have a purpose... lol (love that sig line)
