  • The Audio Technica AT2020 is a popular budget microphone: cardioid, condenser and under $100. So can the sE Electronics X1A - also a budget condenser mic - hold its own against the AT2020?

    Never been a fan of the 2020’s sound. Highs are a bit brittle, lows are meh. The X1a beats it easily.

    The At2020 and MXL 990 are highly overrated. They are not in the same league as even the se x1a.

    A built in pop filter really isn't that convenient. It muffles the sound. To me, the AT wins this one! Thank you so much! Great review!

  • @miketype1each

    The X1A has good bass + more top end air. 👍 for this review!

    To me the real fight of the x1 a is against the at2035

    i think the x1a is superior sonic wise, nevertheless for homestudists, the at2020 might be more forgiving for someone recording voices at home regarding spectrum...

    This has been a really difficult choice for me! Your review really helped me at least put the at2020 out of my mind.

    The review seems a little harsh towards Audio Technica:

  • @deolludhianvi

    Hello Sir, I want to record my written poetry professionally. Suggest me a good audio interface and microphone. But my room is not sound proof. The sound from outside comes inside our room. My total budget is $350. Which mic will be good for me dynamic and condenser? I want professional quality sound, crisp and clear voice.
