Yes, I can tell. Every mic had it's personal little sound. I chose the M201 TG from Beyer Dynamic.

The KK707 looks an awful lot like the Austrian Audio OC707. Seems a bit lacking in the low end compared to the other mics, but maybe a bit of proximity effect would warm it up. Then again, in a mix with a touch of EQ would I be able to hear a difference? I'm not sure. Interesting.

Every other mic sounded better than the KK707 (so glad they didn't put a third letter K in the name of the microphone). The KK707 sounds hollow / tinny top end and has a lot of sizzle. Now for $50 it's better than a lot of other microphones out there. The Lauten Audio LS-208 sounds so nice on your voice. I would love to hear your review of the Sennheiser MKH-50 for indoor dialog. T-shirt has been ordered.

I fully agree with your assessment! And yes, I’m also glad they stopped at only two Ks hahaha. The LS-208 is a special mic! I love it so! As for the MKH-50… oh man. I’m looking to grab one. Perhaps in the fall. That’ll be a great video. Thanks for ordering a shirt! I hope it fits and is ok. Mine was a little big but seems a good quality. KZbin offers a partnership with Spreadshirt, so I just submit my designs and they take care of the rest. Tell me how you like it. Thanks again!!

Hahaha. Well said! Yes, buying used mics is definitely a thing. Many people do it. It’s a great way to save a bit of money on an expensive mic. Most audio gear is constantly bought, sold, swapped, or stolen. Haha.

Nicely done. Another BFL winner at a crazy low price point. That waterfall sound you heard may have been the initial onrush of current into the capacitors as they fill up with their capacitive capacity.

I just found this. It looks similar to the V10 but it’s got a 25mm capsule and it’s darker: amzn.to/3KXpNpT So far that’s all I could find. I’m sure the real V10 will be stocked at Amazon soon.

You are very right about subjectivity. There are so many things people use mics for; serious production KZbin channel, "just starting" KZbin channel, film production, voice over, field recording, and on and on. I agree, it is not a bad mic at all. It will work well for many people. Yes, the other factor is difference in price versus a little more tweaking in post. Bai Fei Li is really surprising me with their products. However, undercutting the competition in pricing has long been a strategy of Chinese companies. They are certainly hitting the "good enough" mark with these mics for some applications at these prices.

Fully agreed! Can’t go wrong for $60! But if you ask me, I’d have preferred every other mic I tested over this one. I’m still partial to the BFL C-414 as the king of BFL cheap mics. But that LS-208!
