## Description

The SENNHEISER e906 is a high-quality dynamic microphone with super-cardioid pick-up pattern, ideal for miking guitar amps, percussion instruments, snares and toms. Its laterally mounted capsule has been specially developed for miking guitars amps face on and and extremely close to the signal source. The switchable sound characteristics have been optimally adapted to the requirements of guitarists. The super-cardioid pick-up pattern provides good isolation from other on-stage signals. Due to its flat design, the e906 is also very suitable for use with drums, since it can easily be positioned in cramped space conditions (e.g. below the cymbals).What's in the Box: e 906 microphone, MZQ 100 clamp, pouch, user manual.

Review: Absolutely brilliant, lives up to the hype! Super cheap compared to UK and second hand prices! - Excellent bit of kit! I'm from the UK originally and this goes for £200 which is about $230 give or take, I got this for $165, about £125! Which is absolutely crazy! It's exactly what everyone says it is. Great value for money, functions to a high a high standard, captures a nice balance of low mid and highs, compact and small perfect for recording and gigging to avoid being knocked over, subtle too visually Very very happy with it! Just completed my first recording with it and it sounds fantastic, couldn't even tell it was recorded with a mic'd Amp! Record quality in my opinion! Very happy to have it added to my kit collection, I just got signed last year and so bought a new Gibson les Paul, fender jazzmaster, jcm800 set, a bunch of strymon and mxr pedals and now I have this to add to the kit and I'm super happy with it! Just bought a nice hard case for it too for only $8! As it only comes with a soft case which is pretty useless in my opinion lol BUY IT! IT'S A GREAT DEAL WHEN COMPARING TO UK PRICES AND EBEN SECOND HAND PRICES! YOU MAY AS WELL BUY IT NEW FOR THE PRICE! :D
Review: "My "Go-To" Mic for Guitar Cabs - The e906 has become my first choice for guitar amps both live and in the studio. If you are thinking of buying a guitar cabinet mic, you've likely narrowed the field down to the SM57, the e609 and this mic, which is the most expensive of the three. So, is it worth the extra money? Compared to the SM57, the answer is 100% yes. Especially if you are recording, the extra frequency response (18kHz vs. 15kHz on the SM57) is a noticeable improvement. The low profile, side address design makes the e906 easy to use and it doesn't get "woofy" even if you hang it over a cabinet right against the grill. It is just as rugged (built like a tank) and versatile (great on snare, toms) as the SM57 and can handle extremely high dB levels like the SM57 but sounds fuller and less harsh than the SM57 IMHO. The question of the e906 vs. the e609 is a little tougher and depends on what you intend to use the mic for. I have not used the newer "Silver" e609s but have used and loved the older black version. Assuming the guts of the e609 and e906 are the same (and I don't know if that is true or not), the extra $$ for the e906 basically buys you a three way presence switch. For me, that was an easy decision since I do a lot of home recording but don't own a lot of high end studio mics. I want each mic I get to be as versatile as possible and if I get a switch to roll of some highs when needed it is well worth it to me. All said, microphone choice depends a lot on personal preferences. However, I can't imagine too many people would be disappointed with the performance and value of the e906.
