Present "shack"

We tested quite a few mics with the 955 & The RK 56 got the best reports
Thanks! It's good info to know for the next time I start looking for mics.

@Eldorado828 fixed me up with a procomm power mic that I use on the 955 and I cannot believe how well it pairs with it. The sound quality doesn't compare with the low price!

I believe was under $19.00
What a find!!

Those pro com power mikes are a gem. It pushes nicely on the modulation limiter, clean and clear, and the price is right. I have several of them.
 
@Crawdad7 How do you like the RK 56 with the Stryker?
In the big truck I use the telex turner rk56 Stryker 447hpc2 combo and with my voice it's what I believe to be the best noise canceling mic. Lots of compliments on the audio.
Note I did say telex turner and not the new Chinese turners of today. No comparison between the two.
You didn't ask me but thought I'd throw something out there.
 
This is how it ALWAYS looks, so yes, I AM living in here.
This is the "radio room";

And this is the Garage/shop/man cave, where I used to spend MOST of my free time. Not so much these days --- especially durrung the Summer. Even tho there IS A/C out there, it's just not enough to compensate on some days. It reached 98 today.

Still not as sexy as a lot of your shacks, but I have to share space with wifes computer so best I can do for the moment. Yes I know my cheap shelf is experiencing subsidence. I really should get a proper shelf and get some of this into the storage closet lol. It's starting to look like a hoarders haven.
I think it's plenty sexy. I personally feel the Turner+3 is a better mic than anything else. Just personal preference, I know --- But D-104's are just difficult to actually use, even tho they sound just as good as the Turner.
