Excellent Upgrade
Perfect for acoustic guitar recording. I’ve been using my only other two mics, a shure sm57 (classic) and a beta 58a, which isn’t really for acoustic work so this is a huge upgrade for me. These two little guys have their own mic mounts, which is great since they’re skinny, and the sound quality I get out of my acoustic guitar with these is crisp and clean. These are worth it

Great Mics
These are absolutely the best pencil mics in this price range. As a matter of fact, I use them on many of my high-level recordings.

Not as shown on order page
These do not come with the plastic case shown on the Web page. I got a cloth bag, which provides minimal protection.

Great sound quality in a compact package
Fantastic sound for ASMR. I float them above my desk with mic stands and they just work. The included pop filters are also very nice. They are small enough that it's easy to position them around whatever I want to record without a lot of clutter.

Excellent - Stereo Makes a Big Difference! (Honest Review)
NOTE: I have never received any financial incentive related to a review on Amazon. No free products, discounts, etc. Great results for DLSR video of music (solo flute, drums, jazz band, and symphony). A matched stereo pair of these microphones provided much better results for me that a single, much higher quality (more expensive) microphone. Very little noise and rich sound using a TASCAM DR-701D -Channel Digital Multitrack Recorder connected to a Nikon D750 1543 24.3 MP Digital SLR Camera Body 3.2 Inches TFT-LCD 50 mm f/1.4 lens (Black) . Even straight into the camera, sound is so much better than through the camera alone or through a TASCAM DR-40. (For exclusive video use, consider just using a less expensive microphone pre-amp such as the JuicedLink Riggy-Assist Dual-XLR Preamplifier with Phantom Power and Metering .)

Excellent Quality Choir Mics added to my Rode family
I own several Rode pieces. A couple NT1-A mics, videomic, the incredible K2 Tube Condenser, and now a pair of the NT5. I bought these to live mic choirs and also to studio record choir Vocals and other assorted instrumentation. As will all Rode products, the construction quality is absolutely superb and you wont find anything built better. I’m constantly in awe at how much quality Rode manages to cram into their products for what they charge. You get a nice case and mounting hardware although if you play to do ORTF or XY chorale recordings then you need to also get the stereo mic mount bar separately

Great microphones period! Plus 10yr warranty from Rode!
First off, I am an audio engineer, I recommend these pencil (cigar) condenser microphones to ANYONE. From live sound, to recording, to whatever. They sound so warm and full. I've used them on drums as overheads and on acoustic guitars and they sound amazing, check out some videos on youtube and my studio for some samples purevolume.com/ASideMobileStudios. I bought them refurbished, but there's nothing wrong with them thankfully. Very little hiss. Plus, they get a 10 year warranty. Make sure you register BOTH microphones on rodemic.com since they have different serial numbers. Not sure what else to comment on other than these are great microphones at a great price. Can't go wrong with these in your microphone collection!

Unfortunately, I never recieved this pair of mics that I bought from Amazon, but I got my refund, so all is good. I later bought them at a local music shop. Recording with them encourged me to do this review. These are a semiprofessional pair of condenser mics that will do, virtually, a professional job. The most important thing to remember is that the placing of the mics is key; if it does not sound right, there will be nothing wrong with the mics. Just try a different position. Good luck!

I needed it for choir recording and for that purpose, the pair is fantastic. This is my third pair and so far, has been great. It costs three times the other pairs, but if quality is what you are after, it is worth it. It sounds very rich, and clean. Noise level is very low. I use it on XY, and sometimes, on spaced pair, and it works wonderfully.
