I ended up with one 27 which limited its use in live recording so I gave it to my daughter for her computer use. Her FaceTime calls sound great! Before I gave it to her I recall liking the sound of it on acu guitar but Shure kindly gifted me a pair of KSM32 and it was instant love! I eventually made it a ‘standard’ of my mic kit, with enough to cover any scenario. The 32 is one of Shure’s real hits, with everything I look for in a mic. Hype-less, endless SPL, invisible noise and distortion make it easy to apply, and it disappears nicely on a busy stage. Audience, piano, anywhere on a drum kit, all brass and winds, toys table, loud guitar amps. An all-time fave. The 27 is too brite for ek guitar. Too brite for most anything in fact, but my daughter plays flute and the hype works nicely there. Put it on brass and you’ll be selling it soon after.

The KSM32 is actually an electret condenser, not a capacitor mic like the 27. They say the capsule will eventually lose its charge, and the output will drop slightly over time. Realistically, it would probably take a couple/few decades to hear the difference.

@@APMTenants Correct. And I’m glad I was unaware of that when I started collecting them. In my kit, I have four Sony ECM56P that I purchased in 1979. They have lost way more than 50% of their original sensitivity, hence output, and I’ve finally put them out to pasture. Apparently, 45 years is far too long to own them. I have not noticed any dropoff in my KSM32s, the oldest of which are about 20 years. The Sony’s pissed me off enough I wouldn’t have committed to the exquisite sounding Shures. Those Sony’s were favorites of some of my customers as well.

@@artysanmobile I have a few Audio Technica electret mics that are 40-50 years old and sound brand new. I haven’t heard anyone complain about vintage sm81s failing, and those are electret. I have heard that they fail sooner if they get too hot fwiw

The KSM44 is the dual diaphragm version of the SM27. So, if you don’t need multiple patterns, there’s probably not much advantage to the 44. The older KSM27 can usually be found extremely cheap used. I think the SM27 had a few improvements, like lower noise. The KSM32 is actually an electret condenser

Excellent video, as always. I know it may sound crazy, but the TAK55, a model from the Chinese manufacturer Takstar, costs only $109 and has incredible pickup quality, as well as a slightly warmer sound. It also comes with an excellent shockmount, metal popup filter and a (believe it or not) very stylish protective and carrying case. Greetings from Brazil

Not a fan of the 27, the ksm32 sounds nice (its an electrect) and the ksm44 was one of my favorite mics before the "incident". The mic seems too bright. As always the music test is the highlight of the video. Wonder why they dropped the K from the KSM model number?

really good mic, it is easy to listen to, comparing to something like 440 pure, but I think in order for it to sound good, it need a popfilter and being unmoved whatsoever, and i thing if the requirements are met, the mic is worth it.

There's an irony that it comes with a shock mount but doesn't even notice you tapping on the body. At Shure's prices it should be good, but at least it is! According to the YT algorithm it's a year since you reviewed the K688, which was great for it's price except for handling noise. If those guys ever understand Shure's secret sauce they'll make amazing stuff. Unless the deadening tech is what costs the extra 200 dollars. Some of it will be better, thicker material I guess, but heck bells are made out of thick bronze so there's more to it than that. Angel hair sound padding must be expensive!
