    Yo Czar! You always have sick content! Keep up the great work!
    Which mic would you recommend if u had the budget for hiphop rap/singing vocals, Delphos 2 vs. V4 Gen2? Which mic do u think handles sibilance the best? Thanks!

    • @TheAudioCzar

      you can't go wrong with either, I think the Delphos handles sibilance a little better, I attribute that to it being not as bright. They have both have excellent clarity, but the V4 is little more open on the top. But I would not call the delphos dark at all. Just not as bright as other mics

    Hey Czar, just wondering which one is better: the V13 or the V4? In terms of singing and rapping.

    • @TheAudioCzar
      @TheAudioCzar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Can't speak on v13, never used it. I'm sure the v13 being tube has a warmer sound, where the V4 is probably cleaner. It just depends on the sound that you're going for.

      The V13 is and open and airy u47, inbetween that and a 251. It’s a fantastic mic.

    I'm thinking of finally pulling the trigger since i recovered from Christmas. How does this compare to the gen 1 which can be had cheaper now that gen 2 is out.

    Hey czar the v4 or the Delphos 2 for rap vocals

    • @TheAudioCzar
      @TheAudioCzar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I haven't compared the Gen 2 to the delphos, but when I compared the V4 Gen one to the delphos the delphos had a hair more clarity. I think this is going to come down to the voice you're recording. The delphos rolls off some top end, this is great for sibilant vocals. The V4 will have more highs. Both will be clear though. That's a tough one.

    How do you find this mic compares to the Miktek MK300?

    • @TheAudioCzar
      @TheAudioCzar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The V4 has more detail and mk300 has more top end, and more colored. I have a full review of the mk300 coming this week

    How is this mic in terms of self noise ?

    • @TheAudioCzar
      @TheAudioCzar  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Self noise is 12db, which I would consider good. Anything under 16db for a condenser I would consider good.

      @@TheAudioCzar 12's good for a tube mic. This mic for the price point should be at least as quiet as a RODE.

    Is this better than a tlm 103 or wa 87

    • @ChristopherczarSmith
      @ChristopherczarSmith 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Never used a wa87 but I would take this over tlm. Tlm is only cardiod. This gives you all 3 polar patterns. And ha a pad, making it make versatile. You never know when you will need those extra polar patterns
