PSA -Microphone Deal Alert

[Blunote]

I purchased a few of these when they were on sale a couple of years ago on the strength of another forum member's recommendation. I have Encore 100s and an Encore 200. Both are well built and provide superior vocals -at least they make my vocals passable and that's saying a lot.

If you need another mic, check this out. You cannot go wrong at this price.

Thru the end of the year most dealers have the BLUE enCore 100 and enCore 200 on a Two for One deal. The enCore 100 are $99. The enCore 200 are $149. Buy one for that price you'll get two of either model. Both have the identical dynamic moving coil capsule. The enCore 200 is an Active Dynamic with built-in preamp circuitry that requires 48v Phantom Power. The active circuitry yields about 4db more gain and a bit more proximity effect. Watch the vids comparing the two mics. AFAIK, the enCore 200 will not work reliably at less than 40v Phantom Power, so bear that in mind.

i had an encore 200 for about 3 months..
Didnt work for me. i think the active circuitry
made i a bit unmanageable . or maybe it was faulty. not For my voice anyway.
i sold it and got a heil PR-35. no phantom needed.

Link didn't work. Went to the sweetwater page and clicked on their link and it doesn't work either. Wonder if they sold out.

I looks like the 2 for 1 deal is ramping down. Musicians friend is still offering it on the enCORE 100 mic though.

Sweetwater's 2 for1 deal on the Blue enCore 100 was still valid on the product page and shopping cart last night at 9:45PM Pacific Time. The fine print stated that the offer was valid through December 31, 2017, so they were not going by the Eastern Time Zone.
