Sony C800g vs. Peluso VTB Microphone Shootout -- Female Vocals

The Sony C800g PAC is one of the most well-respected microphones in the world that is actually in current production... it is also one of the most expensive. John Peluso, of Peluso Microphone Labs created the VTB (Vacuum Tube Bottle), with the sound of the C800g in mind. While they are not exactly the same, they do have some striking similarities, and we wanted to put them to the challenge in this vocal microphone shootout and microphone comparison test. We tracked both mics through an Avalon AD2022 on an amazing vocalist, Jeanne Jolly. One thing is for sure, we liked the sound of the VTB a lot, particularly given its $1,500 price tag, but, there's clearly very little bad to be said about the great sound of the legendary Sony C800g that continues to be a favorite choice on pop and hip-hop vocal recordings, all over the world. We conducted the shootout blindly, so that you could really listen critically, decide what you like and don't like about each of them. We will gladly give you the results, so feel free to e-mail us, or call us toll-free at 888-528-9703.

What we think:

The legendary Sony C800G has made its way into countless records that made it the top of the charts. A microphone that simply continues to be a world standard in the studio vocal recording world, the Sony C800G remains a must-have for any recording studio that wishes to have a truly complete collection of top microphones. Although it's price puts it in a position out of the reach of many small facilities, those who have managed to acquire a C800G know where their money went! This listing includes not only the microphone, but the entire package including the optional power supply.

You might see an artist using some cool vintage mic in the video, but in the studio the secret weapon is the C800G.
