Sennheiser e935 vs Shure 520DX Green Bullet: which should I buy?
Published · Last updated
Answered by Roadie
Buy the Sennheiser e935 for vocals or the Shure 520DX Green Bullet for harmonica. Their intended uses matter more than the price difference: these are not direct substitutes.
The Sennheiser e935 is a dynamic vocal microphone, making it the more appropriate choice if singing is your main use. Its best supplied new price is £169.
The Shure 520DX Green Bullet is a harmonica microphone, so choose it if harmonica is what you primarily want to play through it. Its best supplied new price is £135, which is £34 less than the e935.
Choose by instrument rather than saving alone. The supplied information does not establish how either performs outside its intended role, so it is not enough to recommend one as the better all-round microphone.
