Short and Sweet and So Unique
Quality:
I dropped this mic when I took it out of the box. Guess what? It still works! I haven't had any problems with it. So far so good.
Features:
I like the fact that it came with its own shockmount. Very nice, but I'll probably buy a better one, but it'll do for now.
Ease of Use:
Plug your mic cable at the bottom of the CAD, set your mixer or audio interface to phantom power then viola...let your vocals do the walking. Extremely easy to setup...even the shockmount!
Sound:
This mic don't lie! If you sound good then it's all good.
Value:
A great value for the money. There are other mics in its price range but I like CAD mics and I'm looking forward to buying more CAD mics in the near future.

Quality:
Yes and yes...especially for the money.
Features:
I like the mount provided, also easy to setup and use. Just put a pop screen/filter on.
Ease of Use:
Basic...just plug it in and go. Make sure you have a phantom power supply.
Sound:
It picks up whatever you put in front of it very well so if your "tone" sucks then what the mic picks up and produces will suck. So...yeah! This mic sounds killer.
Value:
I would say its worth alot more...killer value indeed. Sweet mic with shock-mount and case, can't ask for much more.

Cleanest and Quietist Mic in this price range and more.
Quality:
It looks good for the money, we will see how they hold up over time. I am super picky about how I haul and store my gear so it won't be too bad.
Features:
This mic works great for what I use it for, vocals and instruments in a live acoustic/bluegrass setting. Set one up between chin and guitar, another between chin and mandolin, when we do 3/4 part harmony the others move it and it gets them all. Also use the gxl1200 on banjo and dobro. I mic the whole bluegrass band with 2-2400's and 2-1200's. It also works for small gigs with just one of these for all. The shock mount could be improved.
Ease of Use:
No feedback from monitors, plug via phantom power and works great, cut the highs a little. Also use the windscreen with the 1200, it cuts the pop out.
Sound:
clear and super accurate, don't make any mistakes or everyone will hear it.
Value:
I bought two packs with a 1200 and a 2400 in each for $200. I replaced 5 mics/$1200 from audio technica for these, and even considering the price savings, I would still pick these.
