i just got both of these. havent reakky heard either one yet, but The Internet says that the 57 is good and the e609 is better. I bought the shure on reputation, and the fact that some of my best guitar tonez came from a 58 with the ball unscrewwed. _________________ High quality, low popularity Ecstatic Fury

your ears will tell you wish one is best for you.
thats why i liked the test
it´s dont say buy shure or buy Sennheiser at end he say choice what your ears like more. who is mic01 and mic02 click on link. _________________

I have a cheap JTS which seems to be a copy of a Shure SM58 for vocals. I borrowed someone's SM58 and really couldn't tell the difference between the sounds. I love this mic. I'm now gonna look into both of these for guitars though! _________________ BEIGE PALACE | THANK
i'm always smiling when i see a place is mic'ing cabs with the flat sennheiser but their e906 is far superior, i'm not really an audiophile but if something sounds good you just hear the difference you know. or maybe because the shure 57's are such a standard the sennheiser e's are a nice change but i really think the e906's really shine, i just don't know technically what it is but of you hear it you just know. it's not being anal about sound, i use cheap vocal mics and shure 58's (not the betas) but for micing up stuff live the good stuff does it much more justice, it's just more 'real' sounding the way you hear your amp on stage compared to the sound people in the audience hear, the e906 does your gear more justice.
yeah i know they cost more so it makes sense for a comparison sennheiser vs. shure they gotta be around the same price but i don't think i'd get the 609 knowing the difference with a 906 i would pay a bit more.

Something even better to see would be a shoot out of an SM7b, Sennheiser 421, and an EV RE-20. Yes, these are more expensive but I think they'll give an even greater sound off. +1 to mic'n cabs, only way to go. _________________ Peace & Chicken Grease
i always forget to mention that i really like the e609 on TOMS. I just recorded some drums and used the e609 on floor tom and it's awesome!
the e609 has amazing off axis rejection which why i love it for live use, and for toms it doesn't pick up so much of the rest of the kit, which is always a plus.

Sloan,
Have you tried the Cad M179 on Toms? Man does that mic rock on almost all drum pieces. Its a condenser with like 5 patterns as well...very versatile. Decent on Cabs and Vox as well. _________________ Peace & Chicken Grease

I had no idea CADs we good at anything. I always see a 6 piece "drum pack" going for like $99 in the local classifieds but always turn my nose up to it because I've heard bad things about them. Should even be considering picking this up? _________________ Last edited by laterallateral on Fri Sep 19, 2014 3:05 pm; edited 115,726 times in total
