Bought 2 Sennheiser e815sc's, then I received the Shure c606n. Compared them side by side for this review. Placed them on stands, side by side, plugged them in @ same levels, and turned it up. First thing I noticed is that the Shure was noticeably louder than the Sennheiser. The Senn sound was a bit richer, sounding "flat" through the vocal range. Both have on/off switches. The Shure had more punch in the mid- thru high-frequency range, which SHOULD allow the vocals to slice thru the other instruments as everything's turned up to performance volume. The Senn 815 needs more power to equal the volume of the Shure 606. The punch in the Shure's mid/high vocal range is good, if that's been a problem. Handling noise is not too bad, but it's there. Both were EXTREMELY good values for such a small amt of money! No mike stand adaptor was included with the Shure, though, so be sure to order a large rubber one. The Senn 815's was included, but it's plastic. If I buy another mike it WILL be another Shure 606.

Good mic and very affordable. I like the on/off switch and it is heavy and solid. The cord it comes with is nice too. A great buy!

definitely worth the $20. i like the fact it has an on/off switch and its also heavy and solid. doesn't feel cheap at all.

I do karaoke and DJ wanted a decent mic to go with my nady dkw-duo iown sm58s as well but people keep dropping them have to replace the screen almost once a month so wanted a shure mic without going broke and the c606n are perfect for karaoke just built another system consists of Behringer 1832 mixer Behringer EP-1500 amp Peavey TLS-4 speakers shure UT24/sm58 wireless Nady DKW-DUO dual wireless and Shure c606n mics sounds great together I am building a third identical system recommend do away with cheap mic cord and buy XLR-XLR mic cable much better sound

This is a pretty good starter mic, especially for the price. There is pretty bad handling noise, but that is to be expected.
