The CAD 179 - Best buy?

[Klas Strandberg <>]

Preliminary, after only a few days test, and with a questionmark for
reliability - I claim that the CAD 179 is the "best buy" under 200 dollars.

A bit heavy and ugly, with a linearity which is "average" - it's still a
lot of microphone for the price. Stepless directivity from omni to eight
and very low self noise. Good handling noise.

Two of them will make an good stereo pair, making both XY, Blumline and M/S=

possible.

You need phantom power, though.
