You could possibly do with something a bit 'different' in nature to what you
already have.
Maybe an SE or Rode tube or other LDC mic. I love my K2.

Thanks for the thoughts, Geoff, but I'm really looking for wow
factor... I have enough under-$500 mics in my arsenal already.
Frankly, most vocalists sound fantastic on the Alesis AM61... that's
one seriously under-rated microphone. Very warm, yet plenty of top end,
and not harsh in any way.
Keep the ideas coming, guys! I appreciate it!

If this is about getting a few more clients in the door then it pretty
much has to be a Neumann just because of name recognition. So looking
at your mic list I would look at pair of small diaphragm condensers to
upgrade there. However that may not be THE mic clients want to see..
They usually want to see the big monster Neumann U87, 149 etc etc.. Ask
those picky clients what mic they would expect you to have. 10 to 1
it's a U87
