Lots of the glowing reviews here are from DJs who tend to scoop the mid out of their PAs. Ok, so I'm a Live Engineer with an acoustic solo and duo act and I have the larger 503 for my band, love it. This 602 meanwhile, while smaller and easier to carry is just lacking too much in the mid range to carry voice and acoustic guitar effectively. We are running the signal nicely from the desk, properly gain staged and yet the input is clipping on the 602. So if you're an Acoustic act beware. Perfect for DJs who don't need an honest sound or the vocals to cut through, but live singers should try it first. I got the Thomann covers, and the pocket is way too small, and it doesn't close so wires can fall out
