Studio glow up for vocals

Plugged the DA 87SE in and my vocal sat in the mix like it finally belonged. Smooth top, solid mids, no hiss drama. I don't need to rent the big-name anymore. For the price, it's kind of ridiculous.

I got myself a Dachman

I got myself a Dachman 67 mic recently, and let me tell you, it’s a gem! Had to wait a bit after ordering, but totally worth it. For the price, Dachman Audio really gives you more bang for your buck. The sound quality? Just fantastic. You can tell they put a lot of thought into building these mics, every detail seems perfectly crafted. It's not just another mic; it’s like they poured their heart into it. If you're in the market for a new mic, this one should definitely be on your radar. Can’t recommend it enough!

Got this DA87i mic the

Got this DA87i mic the other day, and I gotta say, it’s pretty impressive. Arrived super fast, which is always a bonus. The moment I unboxed it, I could tell they really put effort into making this thing top-notch. I needed a mic for my YouTube narrations and also for some home studio stuff, and this seemed like a solid pick. Using it now, the sound quality is just spot on. My recordings have never sounded better, and it’s made a noticeable difference. Didn’t expect it to be this good, honestly. If you’re in the market for a mic that does the job well, this one’s worth checking out.

Stumbled upon the Dachman DA87i

Stumbled upon the Dachman DA87i after watching a YouTube review, and I was hooked! Spent ages comparing mics, but this one kept calling to me. Pulled the trigger, and boom—it arrived in Melbourne in just three days. That's lightning fast! Had a minor hiccup with some scratches, but Josh from Dachman was on it. He offered me a free DA87se while letting me keep the DA87i. Who does that? Seriously, Josh is a legend for making things right! The DA87se in Vintage cream is stunning and sounds awesome! While I can't compare it to an original U87i, for voice-over work in my DIY booth, it’s a dream. Balanced and warm, it nails the sound right off the bat. If you’re hunting for a mic, this one’s a no-brainer!

I was on the hunt

I was on the hunt for a killer vocal mic without breaking the bank and stumbled upon the Dachman 87i after some YouTube deep dives. It sounded just like the pricey Neumann 87, so I took the plunge. Wow, this mic blew me away! It was so good, I ended up retiring my old gold diaphragm mic. The sound is just out of this world. But, the box it came in? Not great. The bottom was warped. I shot them an email with pics, not expecting much, but they totally stepped up and replaced it. Their awesome customer service even convinced me to snag the 87SE for our sax player. Couldn't be happier with the whole experience!

You know, I got this

You know, I got this Dachman 87i mic, and it's been a game-changer for my vocals. I used to have a Neumann U87ai, but it just didn’t suit my voice—way too bright and just not what I needed. But the Dachman? It's perfect. The high mids are spot-on, not too sharp, just really smooth and clear. My vocals finally stand out in the mix, no more getting lost in the background. It's like this mic was made for my voice. I’m really happy I made the switch. If you’re struggling with finding the right mic for your vocals, definitely give the Dachman 87i a shot.

In my little studio, I

In my little studio, I decided to try out the da87 mic. Comparing it to the wa87, it's a bit weaker in output, though the tone is quite similar. Now, when I lined it up against the tlm 103 and tlm 102, the differences were noticeable. The da87 didn’t have the same presence as the tlm 103 but, to my surprise, it sounded better than the tlm 102. Honestly, I wish it had a bit more power, but for my needs, it gets the job done. I was considering going for the 47, but my mic budget is tapped out for now. So, the da87 will have to do.

I've been dabbling in studio

I've been dabbling in studio work for over three decades, and recently snagged a couple of DA 87i mics during a super sale. Honestly, capturing my warm, baritone voice has never been this satisfying. I've tried countless mics, ranging from large diaphragm to ribbon and dynamic ones in the $500-$1500 range, but this one is special. It has this unique way of responding, almost like how a guitar amp and guitar interact, with a dynamic give-and-take. It's not a tube mic, yet it offers that same lively feel. This mic is a game-changer for me, perfectly capturing the essence of my vocals. No more searching—I've found the perfect match for my studio work.

I had this issue with

I had this issue with my DA 87SE, and I was kinda worried about it. But Josh and his team jumped right in and took care of everything super fast. They checked out the problem, and before I knew it, they sent me a replacement. Now, everything's back on track, and I'm really happy with how it sounds. Honestly, the DA 87SE is like having a vintage Neumann u87i, but without spending a fortune. It's pretty incredible how close it gets to that classic sound. Big thumbs up to Josh and the team for turning a problem into a great experience.

Got my hands on the

Got my hands on the DA-87i and FET-47 mics, and wow, they were delivered super fast and packaged perfectly. Using them in my studio has been a game-changer. The sound quality is just what I needed, capturing every detail with such clarity. I've already put them to work on a few projects, and they're performing beyond expectations. Definitely planning to stick with Dachman Audio for future mic purchases. The craftsmanship is evident, and they truly elevate my recordings. If you're on the fence about trying these mics, just go for it. Can't wait to see what else they come up with next.

The microphone quality, packaging

The microphone quality, packaging, and overall performance are very good. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of five is because it took a little over a month for me to get the product.

This is my fourth order from Dachman

This is my fourth order from Dachman – I’ve tried many mics over the years, but for the authentic vintage sound at this price, I haven’t found anything better.

I received my 87i mic and connected

I received my 87i mic and connected it using the same preamp and compressor setup I have been using for other mics on a current project. The sound was really good, almost the same as the mic that inspired the 87i. I am quite happy with it!

This is a really good mic.

This is a really good mic. I own a few great ones to compare, including some tube microphones that I’ve made from high-quality parts. This one has its unique sound. I feel happy with my purchase. This would be a great fit for any mic collection.

Ordering was simple, the questions

Ordering was simple, the questions I had were replied to, the item I bought arrived on time, and so far, mics are grate.

The item I bought arrived fast and was packed securely

The item I bought arrived fast and was packed securely with no dents, scratches, or marks. When I tried it, the sound quality was superb!!! I doubt I could find a better deal at this price… I’m also excited to see if dachman might make a U67 replica in the future…

Pleasant, clear, and precise.

Pleasant, clear, and precise. This is a great microphone. It looks nice and sounds excellent. A friend suggested this mic and I’m glad he did. The price is very reasonable. It’s nice working with a small business directly. The free shipping was pretty quick. I got it in just a week. And I’m in CA. If you want an LDC with vintage flair, this mic has it! And much more!

Great mic. Truly. Very good.

Great mic. Truly. Very good. Just a small hitch was the extra 10 bucks for quick delivery wasn't worth it as it still took a week to arrive. But, I'd bet that's USPS' fault. Still, big improvement in vocal quality! (Haven't tried it on instruments yet). Thanks, Dachman Audio!

I've got some Neumann mics

I've got some Neumann mics, and I had a U87 too. So, I know how they sound. And you guys nailed it! I'm 110% happy with my new favorite mic for work.

I'm glad I got this mic.

I'm glad I got this mic. It's like having the real thing in your studio for way less. It has a lot of character, but you can adjust it easily because it picks up all frequencies. I like using it on my voice. It stands out in the mix, but you can change how it sounds by adjusting the EQ. Get it!

Im mor then impressd

Im mor then impressd wth this mircophone! Grate build qwality, very quiet and it sounds grate in the mix. Excelent price to qaulity ratio!

Initially, there were some digital noises in my vocals.

Initially, there were some digital noises in my vocals. However, after applying basic unison preamps, the vocals now sound clear, robust, and pleasing. It also complements my acoustic guitar tracks well. I anticipate using it frequently.

The company, particularly Joshua, demonstrates

The company, particularly Joshua, demonstrates a strong commitment to customer satisfaction and responsiveness. Facing an issue with RF interference affecting one of my DA 87A mics, the resolution was swift and handled with professionalism. Their customer-centric approach is noteworthy.

Got this mic, and for the money

Got this mic, and for the money, it's pretty sweet. Gives off vibes like the real deal u87i, not quite there but cool, especially considering the price. The bummer? They kinda forgot half my order, so I had to wait even longer. Major letdown. On the bright side, they tossed in an extra capsule – nice move there. Now, about those capsules, not entirely sold on the quality. Bit odd since they're hyped up as capsule experts. There's this "burn-in" time needed. At first, the capsule sounded off, like really bad. Took weeks of constant use to even out, and it's still getting there after 2 months. Build-wise, not too tricky if you're handy with a soldering iron and good at following directions, really carefully. Instructions could use a revamp for sure. Overall, my experience? Meh, okay. Slapped a 4/5, but if I'm real, it's more like a 3/5. Got one of the last old kits, so fingers crossed the MKII is a game-changer.

These folks are awesome to deal with

These folks are awesome to deal with. Ran into a hiccup with one of the capsules I bought, but no sweat – they shot me a replacement right away. Definitely sticking with them for future purchases.

This mic is a total rockstar

This mic is a total rockstar! It's killing it with AC guitars, vocals – you name it. The low end is like a warm hug, and the high end? Pure sweetness. Definitely a top-tier mic, giving off those pro vibes.

Could not deliver immediately

Could not deliver immediately, but all the way good information regarding expected delivery time, and later shipment ect. Great:-)

I'm in the UK.

I'm in the UK. I paid for it on the 3rd of October On the 15th I received notice it had arrived in Switzerland & I would be informed when it would reach the UK. It takes me 14 hours to drive to Lucerne in Switzerland. It's now November, a month after my purchase, & it still hasn't shown up.

The product is of high quality

The product is of high quality, and I've experienced exceptional customer service, although I've had to reach out to them twice. The only downside is the microphone holder, which appears somewhat basic given the microphone's price point, but it functions well.

I purchased two DA87i microphones

I purchased two DA87i microphones, and they are marvelous, possibly the best vintage U87 clones available. I tried numerous brands before discovering Dachman Audio, and the greatest aspect of it all is the impeccable customer service provided by Joshua from Dachman Audio.
