Well, first of all if this subject as already been covered but after looking at the meta thread dealing with microphones I didn't find what I'm looking for.
Lots of low-cost chinese condenser mic's are coming today.
Most of them are really crap such as the Samson C01.
Others are better like the T.Bones series.
I'd like to buy one of these low cost microphones and mod it in order to get them sound better. I know in advance that it will never sound as a U87 but I think it's a good way to start with sound recording.
So here are my 2 questions:
1/ are there any low cost chinese condenser mic worth buying ? (and which ones ? )
2/ are they easily moddable ? seems that the MXL series are easy to mod but I don't know how they sound unmodded .
Thanks inadvance for all your replies.
