I've been auditioning the NTG-2...mostly acoustic guitar and singing, the past couple of days.

I must say I sure have been pleasantly surprised with the sound coming from that mike.

It really produced a much bigger, cleaner and transparent sound then I expected from a mike in that price range...at least on the A-1.

Other large diaphragm Rode mikes I have are really great for the money and this NTG-2 just reinforced my faith in Rode again.

Take care.

Roger if you've got some time to wait, the new RODE NTG-3 will be a step up again but about double the price.

Double the sound quality..? You can't measure it like that but I think it should be quite a mic. Build the budget up just in case :)
Cheers.

Thanks Alan,

I'll check it out.
