I want an microphone for my homestudio with figure-8 charactristica
for recording of vocal, background vocals and some stereo recording.

I have been offered a used Sennheiser MKH 30 P48 (figure-8 only, mint
cond.) for a used price of around 400 USD. Will this be a better
microphone than the Rode Nt2000 or Studio Projects C3 microphones
which retails new for a 100 USD more?
Or has the prices fallen so much that a new one will be the best
choice?
