AKG C519 M micro pour instruments à vent
This seems miles better. The lead itself is about 5 times the diameter of the sennheiser lead and looks much more robust. It also unclips from the microphone assembly so if anything untoward does happen to the cable it can easily be replaced without having to bin the microphone as well! I was a bit wary about needing 'phantom' power (48v) from the sound desk (the sennheiser was a dynamic mic so didn't need it), but it's just a button on the desk and every sound engineer should know all about it. Mine did. Just make sure you tell them. Foam cover reduces breath noises and the base response seems much better than my sennheiser. Very happy bunny so far.
