SE Electronics SE 2200

Overall I have to say that I am very pleased with this microphone. While it is true that in this category the choice is great, this microphone is well worth the money.
I have used it for a variety of applications (voice, drums, acoustic guitar) and I was very happy with the results. Personally I think that it's perfect for voice and will do a great job on the rest.
The number one thing I loved about this mic is the lack of noise! Absolutely brilliant! I have been using it with my Focusrite solo and even when I turn the gain up to 3/4, there is no noise!! I was really blown away to find something like this for that price.
Moreover the low cut switch and the pad features were really handy for me when I recorded my Guild (a lot of bass frequencies) and my drum set (pad).
Solid construction overall and I would say that it does not colour the sound.
Highly recommended!

Very satisfied with the product. The sound is very clean and the self-noise is non-existent. The highs are crisp, but not harsh (although my voice seems to be highlighted at around 3000hz, which I had to EQ a bit). The mids are smooth and stable, and the lows are easy to control even before EQing with the built-in high-pass.
Speaking of which, the features are very helpful. Not essential, but helpful. Both the pad and the high pass feel good and work as intended.
The microphone itself feels very rugged and has good heft to it. The pop filter works surprisingly well, and I haven't felt like I'd need to replace it. The shock mount is the part where I am a little bit concerned as there are quite a lot of plastic parts in it, but that is totally expected at this price point. I'm sure it will be just fine as long as you handle it carefully.
Overall the SE2200 delivered exactly what I wanted it to. Excellent product, would definitely recommend if you're looking for a great all-purpose LDC at this price range!
