Default Dynamic mic questions

I'm not particularly impressed with vocal performance with this mic. For
tests I'm listening via a Roland UA-25 USB Audio capture unit switched
to Direct Monitor mode and driving a pair of Sennheiser HD 280 cans. I
know that dynamic mics aren't known for their HF response but I was
expecting more crispness. At this time I don't have any gear to do
proper measurements so I'm reliant on my own ears...


I've ordered a SM 58, will be interesting to compare.


The SM 58 is one of the most over-rated mics ever. Its only virtues are
robustness and reasonable noise cancellation. Certainly not sound quality.
