Sennheiser E 965

Such a nice sound and has a lot of configuration options so should work well for many different kinds of singers and genres. With the price coming down a fair bit over the last year or so, you get more than you pay for in my opinion.

The only better live condenser I've hear would be the DPA de:facto, which has a slightly better feedback rejection and off-axis response, which are of course important factors for a live vocal condenser when there's a loud drummer behind the singer for example.

It's a great buy!

A truly remarkable Mic by Sennheiser. Huge Fat and Profound bottom end that is very clearly defined and tight and never Boomy or Muddy. Sennheiser has done it once again.

Buy but try before. This was actually my first condenser mic. Many years I lived with the impression that the sound was not so good. However, at one time some girl vocalist came to one of our live gigs and her microphone was of dubious quality. I think it was a Shure SM58 rip off. I offered her this mic and was absolutely stunned. For her voice it was a prefect match. For my voice... not so much. So try it on as it is not a cheap mic.

I have only used this mic for home recording, so I don't know how well it does on a live setting.
For the purpose I bought it, it's very good. It doesn't pick up too much ambient noise for a condenser mic, but you still get the "condenser sound", if that makes any sense.
You got to watch out for the proximity effect though, because it can get a bit boxy in some cases.
