This week we're looking at another pair of alternatives to the SM57 for guitar and percussion duty. With an almost 60 year history, the e609 and e906 come from a storied history that saw revision after revision of chasing the bottom line to the mics we have today. Love 'em or hate 'em the mics are still a live sound goto and find their place occasionally in the studio as well.
