Usual great value from Behringer
M-Theory Mike 12.11.2020
Use:
I use these for recording acoustic guitar in a semi-pro studio

Pros:
Stupidly good value for a stereo pair of mics
Decent solid construction
Low cut and gain reduction switch
Comes with box and twin mic holder - very useful, especially for X/Y configs when recording acoustic guitar

Cons:
Only con is having the low cut and gain reduction switches on the same slider. Limits the functions to flat, low cut, low cut + reduction, but does not allow for reduction with no frequency attenuation. Minor point, I know, but some may find this a limiting factor in certain applications.

I would definitely recommend this set to people, and have been doing so since I bought it a few months ago.

Remarkable
Jez Upminster 03.08.2020
I've been experimenting with them as overheads on drums, under the snare and for tuned hand percussion and kalimba.

As you have probably noticed, these microphones are absurdly cheap. I got them just to see what they were like. Compared to an AKG C414 they are not as full down below 100Hz and have an enhanced brightness up top. That being said they work fine as overheads. That extra brightness can be softened with a little eq.

I haven't got a pair of Neumans to to a direct comparison but then again I've got £969 more in the bank than if I had !!!

I have spent an absurd amount on some specialist mics in the past. It's not always been money will spent. These are great to get started and learning how to mic things up.

As a Behringer product, we already know that it isn’t made with the best components… by the way, It doesn’t mean that the product don’t sounds good. When well used is possible to achive excelent results with this microphones. I recomend.

Cheap and decent sounding mics
Kevlanco 16.01.2023
I bought these mics to use as overheads for a drum recording situation. I quickly upgraded to using a stereo xy mic from RODE, but I still use these mics from time to time for additional room mics. I have also recorded
guitar from time to time with these mics with decent results.

If you're looking for a very cheap way to build up your mic collection, this is a decent way to go!

What can I say they just work!
Stefano de Belfast 11.10.2020
Needed small condenser mic for acoustic guitar recording. Hd a look around but needed a budget option as cash was scarce. Settled on the little Behringers and they didn't disappoint. Capture and present a true sound of the instrument perfectly.
It's not Neumann KM184's but then at this price point you don't expect them to be. If you find you need a budget option look no further. Can't fault them, just perfect.

Nice inexpensive stereo set with stereo bracket
wouterv 09.03.2020
Noise floor is a tad high (just like the specs say), and the spacer bracket provided is quite nice. With low cut filter or -10dB pad - if you need the latter, the noise floor probably won't be a problem. Ridiculously cheap and nice flat response.

Surprisingly Excellent
Brian5815 26.08.2015
I purchased these microphones as an upgrade for a set of Gatt Audio Microphones. In that set the overhead condensers could not handle the diversity of range required for micing up the variance of cymbal frequencies but all also added amplification of toms and percussion.

Surprisingly for a budget microphone the Behringer C2 Stereoset accommodated all of this well. Set up in the XY/Coincident Pair format which allows for guaranteed mono compatibility these microphones performed very well. As I use percussion also, the three settings on the microphones allow for great diversity from cowbells to the variance of tom sounds. I would highly recommend these mics to anyone looking to start using overheads.

The build quality is also excellent with a sturdy outer shell and aesthetically pleasing finish.

Good for what they are.
Drumfights 06.03.2020
If you accept these are budget mics, they are cool. I use mine as a not worried about overhead set when club gigging, and they do the job perfectly. Probably not the best as a high level studio mic, but that's missing the point. Great as my go to mics for quick gigging without worries.

Good, not great
Drumperson 17.12.2021
Got these to use as overhead mics for my drum kit. They sound quite tinny and harsh to my ears and were not really what I was looking for. On the other hand, they will record an acoustic guitar very well. You get a nice case with everything you need to put them on your mic stands. Nice to be able to roll off the low end with a switch on the mic. Overall not impressed, but not disappointed. For the price I am happy with this product!

My first overheads...
Alex Djuran 28.09.2018
I've been tracking down overhead mics for a while, since I record live drums now. I was thinking of buying a Samson DK707 kit, but I ended up going with the 705 and these bad boys and I'm very pleased. Surprisingly clarity in the top end, picks up cymbals really well. The high pass and 10db pad are nice features, but it's a shame they can't be used at the same time. Despite their incredibly low price point, these are a steal!
