RE: help finding best mics in the $50 range

A shure sm57 is just not going to cut it for 2 point high quality recordings. Because of its far from flat response and limited dynamic range it makes for a great mic for live vocals, snares and guitar cabinets not for 2 pointt recordings.

The poster wants to make quality 2 track recordings.......not going to get it out of a sm57. Whether or not it can withstand being run over by a truck doesn't make it a good mic for 2 point recordings. It makes it a good mic for being run over though.
