Suggestions for new mic tests on Youtube

I've been thinking about useful reviews for my Youtube channel, and the stats show that people like comparisons with counterfeit or just plain and simple dirt cheap mics, up against the usual branded products. Years ago, I played the cello, and just laid my hands on one for the first time in 40 years.

In my audio engineering class my professor has done mic tests with different mics on the same sound source. This gave us a great understanding of what mics do what and sound better for various desired results. I understand everything goes by preference, but how should I really know which mic is best for myself without really hearing it compared to others of the same style?
