Default Blue Dragonfly microphone

Any1 try a Blue Dragonfly large-diaphragm condenser microphone (http://www.bluemic.com/products/dragonfly/) for recording? Looking for some feedback. I have no place to rent or buy it here in Ontario, Canada, but I like the sound of some of the recordings I've heard.

Well I'm convinced, that sounds fantastic. The quality of the mic is great to my ears but your performance stole the show. I'm going back for another listen.

Thank you, if you could wait a few days I could go to my studio and record a regular acoustic guitar with it. I just have a few gigs that I've got to get out of the way first. But I really like the dragonfly for acoustic guitar. I especially like that you can swivel the head to get it into the best position for recording.

w0w! very nice!

I started a poll on massdrop with the Blue Dragonfly as one of the options. If it gets enough votes, they will try to get a bulk discount. Here is the link if anyone is interested: https://www.massdrop.com/vote/Large-...r-Microphones/

Here's my favorite low dollar mic. Sounds more like a $500-$600 mic.

MCA SP-1
