I am a singer/songwriter looking to record my next album. It will only consist of vocals and acoustic guitar. I currently have this setup:
iMac G5
M-Audio MobilePre preamp

I have some elcheapo mics right now, and I want to get something better. I'm looking to spend about 100 bucks. Any suggestions?

Shure beta 57' s or 58's are the workman's dynamic mics- that being said I really like my Blue Ball (phantom powered though) & one day I tried mic'ing my guitar amp with an Audix (F10- I think) dynamic that was from their "drum pack") & had really good results, so Audix mics are generally a pretty good gamble as well.
