“The i5’s arrived, and I tried them out at practice last night. They’re freakin’ awesome! Seriously, I think we’ll be using these instead of SM57’s and 58’s for general purpose, workhorse mics. I like the rugged construction and the slightly smaller size, and they sound fantastic. They handled the complex bass sounds of my Didgeridoo and the crisp metallic highs of my Meinl Spark Shakers with ease.”
