In this quirky comparison, Justin Colletti from Sonic Scoop tests out so-called “little brother” microphones, named thus because each capsule displayed herein is the wallet-friendly version of a signature, flagship, and loftily-priced model. But just because these microphones won’t break the bank doesn’t mean they’re in anyway inferior—in fact, it’s quite the opposite; as Justin puts vocals through the AKG 214, the Mojave MA-50, the Telefunken CU-29 Copperhead, and the Royer R-101, you’ll hear just how much they have to offer.
