May 11, 2011 08:33 pm hahaha, that's funny.
I always hear stories how the sm57 is as tough as hell too.
I just reckon its funny that they give these mics so much **** to try test their durability limit....and i love breaking things so i can relate.
So is this true^^^? Either way its funny to me.
That's something someone could put on you tube.
Buuy couple of 57's and see how much they can take before they die an video they whole thing.

May 12, 2011 02:45 pm I remember seeing a couple vids on youtube testing Shure durability
First one, they drop one of the mics from 8 stories up (IIRC) onto the brick floor below (was in some big hotel lobby) Only the outer casing was slightly dinged.
Next one, they drop something like an 100 pound tape ball on the thing. Well, the casing got pretty smashed, but the mic was still fully operational.
Drop test:
"Road" Test
Tape Ball!

Trivia point -- They were actually modified Graflex camera flash handles.
