Hi all,

I'm looking for a cheap mic, for recording vocals at home (rough/sketchy). So far I I've found some Nady mics (namely SP-5 and SP-9) which look like the thing but I'm a bit laid off by their price--about the same as a karaoke mic. Have anyone used cheap Nady mics in their setup? Any comment on them, good, bad, satisfactory? I don't need excellent quality for now, but still wouldn't want to have fight the noise levels.

The Behringer XM8500 is in the same price bracket... Looks like a Shure SM-58 clone, just like the Nady SP-9 (preferred above SP-5 because of the cardioid pattern)

I've used a $10 karaoke-style mic in the past (before I got a set of Shure SM-58's) and for demo sketches and stuff it kinda worked... Sorry, no experience with Nady mics.
