My collection doesn't include any U87's or Royer ribbons either. My term expensive is also referenced by my personal cost and not market value. Many in my collection were obtained free and a Behringer B2 Condenser is the most expensive purchase so far.

A chrome plated Electro-Voice dynamic Model 664 has a lot of sentimental value because it was my dad's stage mic. I've never used it for recording. Might be something to try soon.

Thinking of it, my collection makes a good argument that Mic Room may be a good investment for me.
