ooh, a zombie thread came to live again?
My end of the story: I bought a rode S1 and coudn't be happier. even under less then perfect circumstances I can hear my voice better on stage and the aproximity effect is much less than with a dynamic mic. It just has so much more detail. and when I bought it they told me about a current promotion so I could choose another mic for 1 $.
I experienced that a SM 58 can also sound great when handled by a skilled engineer, but the rode seems to be a good partner for my voice without much work.
