This mic didn't really cut it for me, it's good rejection for large diaphragm condenser but the tone of the mic, is not meant for broadcast or spoken words. I wish they made something solely focus on spoken words, perhaps something with their 38mm capsule tune specifically for spoken words, that would be my dream mic. As of today, I still prefer the RE20, SM7B and the Ethos.

I disagree if you are speaking generally and not personally. It's really good for both, especially for broadcast. It cuts through a mix well and it has fantastic articulation on air. Way better than the Rode Broadcaster, which is by far the most used purpose made broadcast condenser. For spoken word it is a bit more depended on your voice, technique and destination I guess. Sure I wouldn't record a audiobook with it but it shines on things like promos. If your main gig is spoken word, seek if you can try out the Atlantis. It's a bit more V-shaped in its EQ than the TLM103 but in a positive way. It's probably their most tuned-for-voice mic with an 38mm capsule.

RE20 all day. SM7b all night. LS208 is fine too.

I've been playing around with their SR314 too - possibly the best handheld mic I've ever used!

I saw your video very well in south korea. I'm agonized about EARTHWORKS ETHOS and LAUTENAUDIO LS208. Which product do you think is better?

What will you be using the mic for? The Ethos currently has a crazy $300 off deal (and is one of the best sounding broadcast mics I’ve ever used!) but the LS208 is more versatile + better in untreated environments.. Hope that helps 🤙

@@TimLeeOZ Thank you for your answer. I'm going to use it for podcast and voice-over. Before that, I used the SM7B, and I thought that the unique sound of the dynamic microphone was not suitable for my voice. If I follow your words, LS208 would be better because my room is an untreated room. However, LS208's 8 kHz bandwidth is high, so I think our ears will be tired if we listen to it for a long time. Can I adjust this with an EQ?

How much better is the room rejection when compared to the ethos?

I love the Ethos, but it's less forgiving than the LS-208 in an untreated room.. Got a video coming out using the Earthworks SR314 'in the field' (outdoors, in empty locker rooms, in a foyer of a stadium, etc) and it was excellent at room rejection. It's a handheld, with a completely different use case though - hope that helps!

You sound better on the ethos..your voice sounds thin and airy on this one
