  • I bought a 669d and absolutely love it. I have much more expensive mics but this is my new favorite. Add a pop filter and shock mount it’s amazing

  • I have both these mics and the 669 is hands down the best mic under $100. It would have scored better had it been compared to a condenser. Yes, it is technically a dynamic in that it does not require phantom power. But everything else about it including the sound is pure condenser. These tests are only relevant for dynamics. Almost every studio condenser would fail them in the same way. Just my opinion.
