...I was using a III in a Transcriptors arm. Rushed right out and bought the IV, gave the III to a friend of mine before I had the IV mounted up.
And was completely underwhelmed by the IV. The III was accurate and lively. The IV was accurate.
But I'd take the IV over the M97xe any day. IMO the M97xe was a steaming pile of poo. Not even hot poo, but the cold, nasty stuff.
The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?

remember the posts by fscerri? I currently run a M97xe with a Jico stylus on my AR-XA. Without the Jico stylus, the M97xe is flat and boring to me.
Even if I got the resistance right, there was the bad QC to get around. Check out the TnT Audio review, there's a pic of the stylus and it's visibly off azimuth. Mine was like that, too, and I didn't need a microscope or even a jeweler's loupe to see it.
Prices on the M97xe skyrocketed when Shure stopped production. There are far better cars for far less money.

that's what seems to cause most of the problems, cheaping out to maintain a good profit margin without raising the price much. The other would be sending things overseas to be manufactured. This is exactly what happened in the music world with guitars and amps etc. The USA sent people over to set things up and the 1st samples are AOK. A few months or years go by and it declines. The headquarters finds out later when people start complaining and it starts to add up. They either fix problems or not.
The Shure SM58 is probably the worlds most used live vocal mike. That's a lot of spittely soaked mics.
Remember Garage-A-Records? Got mine when they were selling the M97xe for $65.
That kind of money today would get you an VM95 with an elliptical stylus.
