budget will not permit an upgrade at this juncture.
i have SM57s SM58s, a couple of Behringer condensors, and an AKG C3000.
i am looking for a decent mic for vox.
how complicated and ambiguous is that............?

Why would you seek to spend twice the cost of an RNP on a vocal mic
that'll you'll plug into a lousy preamp? I'm not trying to be an asshole
(I am, in fact, an asshole - I don't even need to try), but I am trying
to get you to realize that whatever mic you get is going to be
compromised by the preamp of your choice. Have you heard an SM57 through
an RNP? If not, looking to spend nearly a grand on a mic you expect is
going to make a big difference is not sensible given the rest of your
chain, in my own arrogant opinion. An RNP _will_ make a big difference
to all the mics you already have, and you'd still have half your budget
for another mic.
