That's kind of pricy, but is the price actually worth the difference in this one mic I'm looking at? Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008NMFOJO

I've had a couple different Rode mic's and been really happy with them. You can get them as cheap as $140. Worth the extra 40 you'd spend.
