"AKGD112 - The Love of My Life"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Until my clients demand a different kick sound than what you would hear on any professional recording, I will be satisfied with this product and its wide range of applications.
Sound
It is the best sounding kick drum mic I have used. It has more application than other names such as the EV868 or the ATM25. People have told me that the acoustical design of my studio is what makes this mic so good, but my room is nothing special! The AKGD112 IS!
Features
Came with an easy manual that explained all applications. Also printed were a few techniques one could use in one's AKGD112 recording. I wish there was a better mount for the microphone.
Quality
It is put together fine, the only thing i do not like is the shark "shark nosed" grill and frame. It makes it a little difficult to get the perfect distance on the kick's skin.
Value
THE PRICE IS AMAZING!
The Wow Factor
I am completely obsessed with the product. I have been using it for quite some time and, believe me, we have our intimate moments.
