  • ProSound Readers Choice Award 2009, condenser microphones

"KT Tunstall has always trusted and relied on the Shure SM58 to deliver her vocals as it delivers good quality audio, and is robust and reliable under the rigors of touring. When an opportunity arose recently to use the KSM9, we were very impressed by the microphone. It made sense to make the change now as we would still have the warm natural sound that we had from the SM58 but with added detail in the high frequencies, without being to sharp or crisp and more punch"

Oz Bagnall, FOH Sound Engineer, KT Tunstall
