Great mic for rehearsal

er colera 10.11.2022

I was looking for my first mic to put in a rehearsal room, and I was considering some of the cheapier alternative to the classic Shure sm58. After some research and comparisons with other microphone of the same price range, I'm glad I've gone for it. The building features are on spot for what you pay, while the sound is, in my opinion, far beyond. I'm really happy with it.

Very good, maybe not for experts

Sorry, but why is this name already taken? 26.11.2021

It's a low budget microphone, very good for amateurs or for home recordings. Use a microphone stand when you use thiw microphone, because holding it with your hands may cause some instant low-frequency sound when you change holding it from the one hand to the other. In most cases this kind of sound is not needed. But don't forget, it's a cheap microphone, very good for its price.

Beta sm58 v mb85 beta

AdamW 09.02.2014

I listened to the sound clips available for both makes of mic and thought they sounded almost identical, in reality there is more difference, but it's still a great mic, and factor in the cost it is great value for money,

I have compared the mb 85 beta with a an SM58, and an SM58 beta . in the same PA with the same near flat EQ settings, my opinion is e the MB85 beta is a louder, clearer and warmer than a standard SM58, the SM 58 beta is slightly more beefy in sound , but look at the price difference and there is no contest,l

Value for money!

rey del espacio 17.12.2021

Needed a cheap dynamic mic for backing vocals.
This is cheap in price, but not in quality! It feels like a good built.
The range seems good enough, I will definitely use it as a second mic in some guitar recording. The hard case and the mic clamp are nice additions, but the clamp is super stiff.

ADD a switch! Nice sound

Xaro5 26.02.2019

We own a wireless Shure Beta 58. We use both mics for live gigs and Karaoke. T.bone has a great sound, usually picking up EVERYTHING. It is made of metal giving a strong feeling of sturdiness and quality. The BIG MINUS is that it doesn't include a switch so you must mute it through the console and it gets annoying really quick. If it had a switch it would be the perfect choice in this range price.. Looking forward to add a switch to the next version on MB85.

Almost there

ThisOneGuy 29.04.2020

Compared to it's main competitor the major difference is the noise you get from handling it. The body itself isn't as sturdy. Also has a bit more background noise, but nothing relevant, though. Apart from that, it works just as well.

Quality Mic that rivals Shure SM58's!

JamieM 13.08.2015

We purchased two of these vocal mics to use for backing vocals in our band. Our bass player had bought one and after inspecting it and hearing it live and in rehearsals I was impressed. We were on a budget and I have purchased several other Thomann brand items in the past including some microphones (t.bone dc1500 drum mic set) which I have been using live for over 2 years. Needless to say they are great for the price and this mic is no different.

We compared it to the singers Shure sm58, and they both are very similar, to my ear the MB85 has a slightly cleaner sound off the bat. Then with a few tweaks both mics were nearly indistinguishable. The SM58 seemed more mid frequency prone and dull when EQ'D flat. But obviously every instrument needs a little adjustment..the room and acoustics play a role to the sound of course, and the speakers they go through. We used EV SX300'S and this mic sounded/sounds excellent through them just as good as the sm58.

Overall brilliant mic for the price and looks very professional. My only criticism is the plastic case it comes in arrived with one of the underside legs/arches broken..The mic was in perfect condition though. Also it does feel lighter and a little less robust than the sm58, however if you mind your equipment and keep it in its case when transporting it I see no reason why this would not last just as long as the SM58.

Great sound, great quality, great price.

A microphone that is on the cheaper side, but does its job splendidly. The sound is good.
