Dirt Cheap Behringer XM1800s

A friend of mine is considering them for a cheap home-studio solution. 3 for 40 bucks. Do you think they are worth it? Could he get usable sound from those?

thanks!

They are noisy...very noisy. Tell your friend not to waste his money. Go with a mackie. Those are the best cheap mixers.

Sorry Dave, I think I wasn't clear... I was talking about Condenser Microphones...

but I bet they are just as well a waste of money...

Behringer is notorious for crap gear. Mics are absolutely THE MOST crucial part of any recording system, so they are NOT the place to skimp.

Sorry...rookie move. I should've known that was a mic. I'm more familiar with their mixers. If you want a good, cheap dynamic mic, go with the Shure SM57 or SM58.
