Best mic preamp (and budget pre) to pair with an SM57?
I really like using this on my voice. It seems to work fairly well.
I have heard that dynamic mics are affected much more strongly by preamps than condenser mics because the gain change required is so much greater.
This leads to two questions:
1) Will a better mic preamp fundamentally change the sound of a 57?

$15K budget, opening new studio. comments/suggestions?
hey everyone,
I have decided to take the plunge and open a studio. I have a few pieces of decent gear that have got me along up to this point but have been looking at gear purchases to put me into a much more pro class of gear and sound results.
What are some good mics to start off with (budget)?
So I've been going off and on about what audio interface I want to get. It's still sorta between the PreSonus Firebox and M-Audio Mbox.

Budget Headphones
I'm in the midst of building a small setup for recording. In my spending of cash flow, I have very little left in my budget for anything else. Right now I have a pair of $25 Sony headphones I bought at Walmart.
Does anyone have recommendations for headphones under $50?
I could possibly spend up to $100, but would prefer to be under $50.
