    I made an excellent purchase - the computer was advertised as used, but it arrived in excellent condition and in working order. The seller answered my questions immediately and shipped it very quickly, in sufficiently reliable packaging. I would definitely look for him again if I were looking for such equipment and would recommend him to my friends. Thank you and successful business.

    Bought both this machine and one more which I think I have already made feedback, but ebay said it would take one month to ship, but arrived within 1 week without shipping fees and no customs/toll fees or shipping damage which is very appreciated. Good communication, they packaged both machines into one box well, very neat for being used and does not deviate from description. Highly recommend them

    One Of The Best Out There

    I own numerous great microphones, which include the powerful Blue Bottle. I will continue to use all my collection of microphones, as many of them serve different purposes and have unique characteristics that fit different situations. Even so, I would consider the U87 an extra special microphone because it has a sound of its own. After using it for the first time, I can now understand why many consider it a must have in the studio even when they have other great microphones. It has strong highs that are kept in check by a strong midrange that is warm and pleasantly "boomy". It is also a loud microphone with low self noise, allowing recording engineers to capture voices and instruments without bringing in any unpleasant sounds. For those who love who defend good sounding inexpensive ...

  • Are You Kidding Me?

    This is the professional’s choice and with good reason. No studio can claim to be a pro studio without one. It’s the preferred mic of NPR and the sound is legendary. As you might expect, it has become my go-to mic in my studio.

  • Best microphone

    Amazing high quality classic microphone for recording voice or any instrument. Output is more than twice the output of other microphones. It is not lightweight. The heavy parts make its high quality sound.

  • Microphone of the Highest Quality and Audio Standards

    This microphone is made of the highest quality. The sound is absolutely unbeatable for voiceovers. Very natural, neutral, and clear in the midrange. It has a reputation for being the best for a reason. Yes, you can buy wonderful microphones for cheaper, but none of them are a Neumann U87. Neumann uses the best materials and craftsmanship out there. If you are looking to record primarily vocals and like the magic of tubes I would also recommended the Neumann M149 and if you are on a budget the Miktek CV4 is quite good. The Neumann U87ai will do anything however. It's great on any instrument and is probably the accurate microphone for realistic voiceover work. It just sounds polished and EQ's nicely. I use a Neumann Pop Screen and a Neumann Wind Cap on it usually to reduce noise as it is ...

  • A must have Mic!

    I did a ton of research before buying this great mic. Initially, I was thinking of getting a Neumann TLM 103 because people on the Internet were bragging about how good it is. The good side about TLM 103 is its price. I've never thought about spending a ridiculous amount of money on a mic knowing that I am not going to use it to make any money from it. But, hey, guess what, I have ended up loving this Neumann U87ai. I've been using Shure beta 87ai for while and always thought it's a very good mic. Now, with this Neumann U87ai in hand, I am not going to use any other mics. I don't know how to explain it in words. Everything about this mic is just PERFECT!
