## Questions & Answers

**Q: why it shows 99,99 and by clicking on the picture it shows a higher price?**
A: As best as I can see, the $99.99 one being sold is a "refurbished model." Look into the details for each seller and you will see a variety of prices, price + shipping, new, refurbished, etc.

**Q: I have a shure clip on my K & M stand. Can this mic be clipped to that clip?**
A: Hi Carlos, Shure makes a lot of different clips. That said, this mic is a pretty standard size. Also, this comes with a mic clip of its own when you purchase it new from us, so you should have what you need right in the box.If this was helpful, please consider purchasing from us on Amazon. We can help with support after the sale as well. We have it in stock and ready to ship. - Pixel Pro Audio

**Q: Will this mic be good for studio application (recording vocals)? I hear a lot of comments indicating its performance in live venues, but not studio**
A: Typically people use large diaphragm condenser microphones in the studio, like the Audio Technica AT4033. You can use dynamic mics in the studio, but typically people prefer the sound of large diaphragm condenser microphone. You just can't use most condensers as a live vocal mic, because they are too sensitive and pick up everything on stage.

**Q: Is this a good mic choice for a quiet singer? (yes, years of lessons, good mic technique, instruments don't overpower. great voice, just not strong.)**
A: Yes!  The Audix OM5 is a really great mic for a variety of singers.  My wife and I perform as a duo and each use one.  My wife is also a "quiet singer" so I have to increase her gain and volume on our PA.  The OM5 does not feed back even when we turn it up.  We typically play through a Bose tower and the sound comes from behind us.  If you have any feedback issues when you turn up the mic, just turn the mic slightly away from the speaker and try to keep your head between the mic an speaker.  We also have several Shure SM58s that we use when hosting Open Mics.  Both the Shure and Audix mics are well built with tight connections and have held up well.  The Shures will pick up your voice from "around" the mic, but be sure to sing directly into the Audix as it is uni-directional.  We have been using Shure SM58s for 8 years and Audix OM5s for 4 years and highly recommend them.
