Condenser Microphone Specific

[CmRob]

Hello People,


I am looking to buy a new condenser microphone.


My budget range is $100 ($120 max)
There are a lot of choices out there.
Based on current availability, I'm deciding between 2:


Behringer C-1
Or
M-Audio Nova


Is the Nova that much better so I would spend the extra cash?
Or Should I get the behringer C1 since it's much cheaper and it's not much different from the Nova?


There is not enough reviews of the Nova and the C1 has very mixed reviews, that's why I posted this thread.


NOTE:
I am aware of the other alternatives it's just the pitted two are the ones readily available as of the moment.


Behringer B-1
Audio Technica AT2020
Samson C01
AKG Perception 120
MXL 990


Poeple who have tried any of these mics please help (samples would be great too)


Please say anything you want to, every word is much appreciated


Peace.

in this price range they are all pretty much the same save the money and spend it when you get to $500 or so to get into the next level of quality

I have a few C1's simply to use when I know they are going to get knocked around a bit no matter what I do and they are reasonable for the money
