The following chart shows the most popular brands/models of drum mikes in their respective price ranges. The prices shown are calculated based on a set of

(5) mikes including
(1) bass drum mike,
(1) snare mike and
(3) tom mikes

The prices are shown are at an approximate, everyday "selling price" discounted off the catalog retail price. Since some of the mikes have built-in integral mounting clips or have mounting clips included in the pre-packaged mic kits, we have included the cost of (4) "Mike EZ" rim mount mike clips into the price of those mike packs which don't have built-in or included clips. The cost of (5) good quality mike cables has also been included in those kits which don't include cables so that the customer can have an even closer idea of the total cost of a typical mike set-up.

All of the bass drum mikes will require the use of either a short boom stand to place the mike inside the drum, or an internal method of mounting. Using a standard "Mike EZ" clip and mounting the bass mike off the bottom of the "tom mounting post" which hangs inside the bass drum is a very convenient, effective and inexpensive method!

The price of a bass drum mike stands or clip has not been included. Since there is a very wide selection of condenser type "overhead" mikes for cymbals, and also because many players don't find it necessary to mike the cymbals separately in small to medium venues, we have not included the price of any overhead mikes in the table below.

There are many to choose from, so if you are interested in adding overhead mikes to your set up, please inquire! The prices shown below are only approximate in order to allow you to find a mike set of the right quality which fit into a price range which is realistic for you (remember all brands/models of mikes are available individually, you don't have to buy them in sets).
