NEAT King Bee Condenser Mic Review / Test HD

Today I review what may be the best $100 condenser microphone available right now, the Neat King Bee. This microphone wipes the floor with the AT2020, and offers a detailed and clear top end without getting sharp, and a robust low end without sounding boxy or boomy. All around, for $100, I think this microphone is a no brainer pick up for a home studio setup on a budget.
