For Live work, make your life easy and your vocal chords happier by getting and using a modern dynamic that features the neodymium magnet.

Audix OM5 is one of my personal favs.

The Shure beta 58. 'nuff said.

For a male baritone voice such as mine, I tend to prefer the Audix slightly over the Shure, it has a wee bit more presence in that range IMO.

The neodymium magnet makes more AC electricity for a given amount of air hitting the diaphragm.

This translates to more perceived sensitivity, more gain (which is always a good thing, with more gain I can run the fader down lower for the same volume level) and the much touted advertising hype of "more gain before feedback".

These two mics will "cut through" the older designs with ease.

And ease is what I'm after.
