I have been using a Behringer B-1 for a few years and love the sound. You can pick one up for about $98.00 most places but at http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/245575-REG/Behringer_B_1_B_1_Condenser_Microphone.html you can get one for $76.89 and I think the shipping is free. I purchased a Shure SM7b for over $300.00 this year but I think I still like the Behringer B-1 better. You will need phantom power to run the Behringer B-1 and a lot of boost on a preamp to run the Shure SM7b. I am getting a Shure SM58 for Christmas just so I will have one.
