Shure SM57 vs Heil PR20 on Heavy Guitars

Both are very good mics that anyone should be able to achieve good sound with. The SM57 is a classic and many classic and modern guitar tracks have been recorded with them. The Heil PR20 is a different sound and sounds more balanced to my ear. Fuller on the low end, easier on the brightness, but one drawback is that it seems a little busy in the mids. Little EQ to fix this, not a big deal.

16 in/out AD DA Converters - Lynx Aurora vs Apogee

Man, I hate to dive into a new converter right now because I have a feeling something new is coming. I've been holding off on investing but its coming down to the wire for me.

Anyone have any suggestion, choices? Lynx Aurora vs Apogee?

What interface would you choose as well?
