    NT5 Matched pair January 12, 2010
    Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Fayetteville, AR United States  
    I'm very pleased with the sound of these matched mic's.  It's smooth without sounding like the acoustical edges have been sanded off.  I also bought the replacement NT45 replacement capsules so I have the option of omni or cardioid which is very useful.  This is a much less expensive way to basically get the much more expensive NT55's.  I spoke to the people at Rode and they confirmed that the guts are identical but the 55 has additional bells/whistles.  For my purposes the NT5's w/capsules covers 99.9% of what i run into.

    You just cant go wrong with these! January 12, 2010
    Reviewer: Zach Miller from Columbia, SC United States  
    I bought these as an upgrade from my old Audix F15s and the difference is outstanding. I use them mainly for drum overheads and you can hear each cymbal beautifully and clearly!

    A really great thing that separates these mics from others in its price range is that its very versatile. Works great on drums, and possibly even better on acoustic guitar!

    If you are looking for a terrific pair of mics that you will never have to replace in your lifetime, sound fantastic, and are more than worth their under $500 price tag...look no more!

    Great mic's January 12, 2010
    Reviewer: Daniel Coughlin from Boonton, NJ United States  
    Bought this matched pair for recording acoustic guitar.  Great clarity and presence with a very hot signal (I had to back them off a bit). These are a great pair of mic's and would be hard to find better at this price point.
