i first researched that mic about 8 months ago. from everything i've seen it should have all the quality if not more than the Blue mics. Plus the fact you can put almost any new and vintage interchangable capsule on it makes it worth it. I'm saving for it now. If you get one let us know what you think.

Thanx Jonnyc

Thankx for the reply, I'm looking into the rental try now. I'm also focusing on which capsule to get when I get the mic. I do mainly Urban Gospel(Hip-Hop, Rap, R&B, etc...) As soon as I can get one I and put it to real use I'll report back....

Where are these mics made? From what they say on their website,
and more importantly what they omit on it, I get the distinct impression that they're made in China...

They are.
