General

The Q8 professional highly sensitive dynamic vocal microphone provides a very clear and transparent sound. This makes this high-end Q8 perfect for use in band situations.

Thanks to a high-quality neodymium capsule, the sensitivity of the Q-8 is impressive! The special, shockproof internal suspension system minimises handling noise. Furthermore, the Q8 is provided with a wider frequency range than its budget-model sibling. The super-directional pickup pattern makes the Q8 fit for live and studio applications.

What a Fantastic Microphone!.. I previously used a Sure Sm58 beta, no less, and this Samson, is streets ahead! All our band now use them, as they are powerful, avoids feedback well, and is built like a tank! So reliable, and I still own the sure beta but it sits in my gig bag unused.. Recommended!..

Toch maar eens een nieuwe microfoon aangeschaft ,na jaren de sennheiser e835 en de akg p5 te hebben gebruikt. Mijn oog was gevallen op deze en op de rode m1. Maar na wat testjes er achter dat dit wel een hele fijne microfoon is. Helder diep en duidelijk geluid. Voor een prachtig prijsje. Zeker een aanrader.

Nog maar een paar keer gebruikt op een repetitie. De micro doet wat ie moet doen. Ik ga nu enkele keren afwisselen met mijn Shure SM 58.

Ik heb verschillende microfoons en heb de Q8 vergeleken met mijn AKG D5. De Q8 is van klank nog zuiverder dan de D5. De Q8 lijkt me van bouw iets zwaarder en is goed stevig. Volgens mij past hij in het rijtje van de shure SM 58 en zelfs tegen de Beta 58A. Als je op zoek bent naar een betaalbare microfoon dan kan ik jou deze aan bevelen. De Q8 voor 65€. Voor een shure SM 58 geef je al 100 €. De BETA 58a 159€. En hij oogt mooi. Alleen staat er Samson op. Zeker tevreden met mijn aankoop. En de levering is altijd top en snel.

een uitstekende microfoon met een zeer zuivere klank en een enorme power.
De Q8 is zeer goed afgewerkt en kan zich prima meten met microfoons uit de duurdere segment klasse. De microfoon is lekker stevig en uiterst geschikt als podium microfoon,
maar ook voor het subtiele werk. Zeer aan te bevelen!!

De microfoon ziet er schitterend afgewerkt uit. En, hij klinkt prachtig. Bovendien krijg je er een mooie "on-the-road-proof-opbergdoos bij. Echt een aanrader voor live-muzikanten, thuisopnemers, horeca-exploitanten en . . . eigenaren van oefenruimtes.
