I am adding another quality tube mike to my collection and was wondering if anyone out there has any experience in comparing these two mikes. I already own a Lawson 47 mp and love it. What I'm looking for is a nice mate for my Lawson that has a different tonality but close to the same quality. I guess the reason for my question is a matter of economics.

Hi Guys.

I’m a music producer based in Johannesburg South Africa. I work a lot with a young female singer that sounds a bit like Avril Lavigne and a bit like Kelly Clarkson. I’d like to buy two mics that would suit her voice and style (Pop rock), but naturally get more bang for my buck too.

I just purchased the lawson L251 tube mic to replace my Neumann TL103. I have a ten day trial on this mic. Out of the box, i have to say that i am not reallying hearing a huge difference between the two mics. and i might even say that i am really disappointed. My signal path is the mic directly into an Avalon M5 then into my MOTU 2408.

I've basically decided that this is the next microphone for me. Up until now my best mic is an AKG C3000B so this is a big step for me. My question is: What is a fair price for a new mic and also for a used mic in good shape?

I've looked all over the Internet and can't find a site that sells this mic new. Any recommendations there also would be great.

Thanks,
Tim

I've been searching for a new vocal mic that will be less bright, more detailed, and has more depth and character than my C1.

Hi again !

Does anyone here have experience with this mic ?

Have anyone ever a/b it with a real u47 (or Neumann's new models m147149)or with the soundelux models?

I've seen some comperisons discussed here, but it was a few years ago and i interested to know about more recent resaults...

Love you all !

Has anyone a/b'd these?

I'm curious about the Lawsom mics. I never hear the name dropped, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Anyone using them ?

Which one and for what ?

Thanks, Kirk

Lawson's L47MP anyone tried it? How would you charactorize the sound?

Which one would you buy?
