between akg's c3000b and rode's ntk, which one is cleaner and more dynamic??

imma pickup a ntk also... just wanna know if any one has or worked with both...
The NTK seems to be best suited to deeper male voices. I dont own one, but a local studio that I go to ( this cat taught me alot of what I know, smart is an understatement for him ) use's one and he played me a couple of songs that he used the NTK for vocal's and I was pretty impressed. I'm thinking about picking one up myself since I record a couple of cats with real deep voice's on a regualr basis.

The C3000b has a wide EQ boost around 5-7khz.
You always want to check the frequency response on a mic
:devious:Why is this? what is the average range?for male or female vocals?

Anyone?
Thanks in advance!

SO WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE MARSHALL MXL 2003 MIC??? CUZ YOU CAN GET THAT RIGHT NOW FOR BOUT $140, AND I THINK ITS A GREAT MIC, I LOVE THE VOCALS I GET FROM IT, I CANT BELIEVE HOW CHEAP IT IS... I RECORD SINGERS AND RAPPERS, AND EVERYONE ALWAYS COMPLIMENTS ME HOW GOOD THEY VOCALS COME OUT.... I HAVE A JOE MEEK VC1Q PRE AMP WHIC IM SURE HELPS, BUT EVEN THAT AINT THAT EXPENSIVE BOUT $400-500.... BUT LIKE SPICE 1 RECORDED HEAR AND SOUNDED JUST LIKE HE DID WHEN HE WAS ON JIVE.... IS IT CUZ I KNOW HOW TO USE MY EQUIPMENT AND KNOW HOW TO MIX, OR IS THAT JUST A UNDER RATED MIC???

Same responses here... This mike can get a little high on silibance and shy on bass (where the Neumann shines) but it is a workhorse.... Definitly worth the $100
