Quality:
Yes! This mic is very durable and stands up very well in studio applications.
Features:
The ability to switch polar patterns
Ease of Use:
This piece is extremely easy to setup and use. The adjustable polar patters are clearly marked on the mic, so it's pretty much plug and play.
Sound:
Overall, the tone is... AMAZING! I'm a trombonist and getting finding the right mic to capture the nuances of my instrument has fairly difficult. This mic, however, really does the trick. While there may be some sacrifice of the bottom end, the midrange and high end sparkles providing a wonderful result.
Value:
It most certainly was. In my opinion, the results I get with the Trion 8000 are on par with mics easy twice to three-times its price.

I have a wide variety of Condensors and this is among the very best
Quality:
The product has a rather unusual rubber exterior which makes the microphone easy to handel making it feel very secure in my hands.
I have used this microphone exclusivly in my studio. and it turns on and works everytime, so I would say it is very dependable
Features:
I have used my trion 8000 for male vocals on a couple of CD projects and the response was overwhelming. everybody loved their vocal through this microphone sounding more pleasing then my nuemann 193. it already wonderfully priced don't think I would add a thing
Ease of Use:
My unit did not seem to come with the owners manual, so I downloaded one form thew web and saw all the famous user of this microphone. it is a very straight forward user freindly microphone Plugging into my Trident S20 mic preamp i was able to very quickly get a great vocal sound for the track I was working on, and the singers response was just "wow sound teriffic".
Sound:
Superb. open airy top end without being harsh, again right microphone with the right mic preamp is important to produce the best quality sound
Value:
The price point for the sound quality is just amazing.
Remember you should always use a transistor preamp when using a tube microphone for the best sonic results
