The EV RE20's reign in broadcast is coming to an end. I've seen it time and time again: **Shure SM7B**'s warm, dynamic sound is seducing more and more engineers, and for good reason - it's a beast in terms of capturing a clear, full-bodied vocal. Meanwhile, the **Electro-Voice RE20** still has its fans, particularly when it comes to radio broadcasting with limited space and high signal-to-noise ratios.

Here's a pro tip: When switching between microphones, remember to adjust your preamp gain accordingly. The **SM7B** needs more love in this department, while the **RE20** can handle a bit more abuse before turning into a hiss factory. Play with those gain settings, and you'll find your sound sweet spot.
