Yo! Elpio, I know from experience over many years, the U-87 has been in most Big Studio's. You see. Times change. Technology changes... I hear that Rode is suppossed to be good. I know many musicians try to get the job done with the least expensive tools. Well, I guess the world will be shocked when China comes out with a Porche for only 8,000 dollars. it might resemble a Porsche, but that is far as it will go. Elpio, when I said "Or Better" I meant that the U-87 was a "expected" Standard Piece of Gear... I do not remember the exact names, but, they were certainly not Shure SM 57 or 58's, those were used for Gargage Bands, the real Garage Bands... Hell, I don't think they cost $50.00? You could drop them, in fact, if your Microphone Sphere was not dented... you weren't really rockin' or funkin'...
Singing then and now is very diffeent... Nat King Cole, Sinatra, Sam Cooke, Johnny Mathis, Lou Rawls, Ella Fitzgerald and Legend "Crooners" used U-87's... Singing is no longer the same featured as it was back in the old days... I'm exposing my age but also my experience... There is a good reason Professional Studios choose certain gear. Proven Broadcast Quality...
Hey, how often do you see a private sale of a U-87? If a voice sounds good with a Shure it will be 10 times better on a U-87. If you're going to stick the mic down your throat and scream or if its 50 Cent won't matter... If you can stick a U-87 down your throat... Big Mouth. Smile.
