Quality:
Made in Austria. Rugged. Seems built very well and not sensitive to humidity.
Value:
Incredible value. Eats any of the Shure handhelds for lunch.
Sound:
Great sound. Almost as good as my other high end condensers costing 5 to 10 times as much! Sounds good to great on everything I've tried.
Support:
AKG are easy to deal with.
Overall:
An all around great product. I'm not a big fan of AKG mics in general, but this model is an exception.
