At last year's NAMM, I was given an Aston Stealth microphone for review. I decided
that this would make a good test for our students in the Recording Arts program
where I teach at the University of Colorado Denver. The Aston Stealth is being
marketed as a broadcast vocal microphone retailing at $399. It is commonly
compared to two other microphones in the same price range, the Shure SM7B
and the Electro-Voice RE20, both of which we have in our school's collection,
so I thought a shootout might be beneficial. All three microphones are dynamic
cardioids.
