Thanks to all respondants! I've picked up a new NT1000 on eBay for $218.
Besides liking the price, I also like that this Rode fits into the same
shock mount as my K2 -- making it that much easier to swap mics when
auditioning a singer. --Vland

I have a Rode K2 tube-type microphone that works well and sounds great.
I'd
characterize its sound as full and warm. I want another large-capsule mic
(probably not a tube-type) that also sounds great but significantly
different from the K2 (probably brighter). Some candidates a

Audix SCX-25
Neumann TLM 103
Studio Projects C1
Rode NT1-A
Rode NT1000
Note: not the Rode NT2-A or NT2000 since they use the same capsule as the
K2, and I'm looking for something different.

I'd welcome hearing opinions about these and recommendations for other
mics.
Thanks.
