Dayton Audio EMM-6 Mic works GREAT with DriveRack PA+!!!
I bought this to go with my DBX DriveRack PA+ and it works just perfectly! Nice quality build, perfectly calibrated and overall the product is just what you need!Pros: great build, great price, carrying case, mic grip includedCons: none so farIf you are buying the DBX DriveRack PA+, you need one of these to really fine tune your setup in the least amount of time. You can read my review to the DriveRack PA+ and you'll see that it's wizard is key for most DJ's on the run. Sure, if you have a sound engineer degree and you are really keen on fine tuning you PA yourself, knock yourself out, but the DriveRack PA+ does a fantastic job. With that, the Dayton Audio EMM-6 mic will allow your system to be finely tuned. The difference is night and day!The build quality of the EMM-6 is great! Solid build, nice weight. Comes with a hard case as well, which is really good since you don't want to damage this bad boy.All I know is that the EMM-6 does a great job with my DriveRack PA+, so make sure you pick one up as well. You could buy DBX's own model, but it's almost twice the price. The EMM-6 works just fine in my humble opinion.

Excellent value
This has got to be the nicest microphone I’ve bought for under $100 from a quality stand point. All metal casing. Its own case. Frequency response graph. Stand. Really really awesome. It seems like dayton audio cared. And it works as advertised. I’ve been taking measurements of my various speakers on SATlive just for fun. I haven’t had to use it out in the field yet, but if you’re into audio, its great to have one. Excellent purchase

Worth every penny for monitor speaker calibration purpose
Used it with IK Multimedia ARC, worked perfectly. Super easy to download calibration file from official website. This is an absolutely game changer for home studio with limited budget on room treatment. ( Saying in so, you have to have a software working together of course)Something worth knowing is that mic mount came with it only work with the desktop stand came along in the box. But it was an easy hack for me to put a cloth on my 58’s mount (adding a layer of thickness) to clip in firmly for my mic stand.One of the best value for money mic.

Great mics
Considering the price of these microphones, they do a fantastic job. Also downloading a calibration file for them is very easy. I initially bought them as a demo but they are cheaper than the dbx RTA mics and they do a much better job

Defective
After months spent learning how to properly use the microphone for measurements and troubleshooting my erroneous results, I determined the mic I received is defective. I compared results from measurements with a different mic and, accounting for their different frequency responses, confirmed my EMM-6 was unable to measure sound below 300 Hz. There does not appear to be a way to claim the warranty through either Dayton or Amazon.Update: Dayton will only honor the warranty if bought through Parts Express, however, this seller refunded me for the faulty mic when I reached out to them.

Affordable Mic for Speaker and Room Cal
Modeled the speakers in WinISD, then downloaded the mic cal file from Dayton and then used it in REW (free room EQ wizzard). Worked great; combined with Sigma Studio was able to dial in sub, 2-way fronts, and 2-way rears all in one evening.

Good measurment mic for Audiolense
I use this mic with RME FF400 to make measurements with Audiolense. It comes with a calibration file that is a real advantage for such a price range. The sensitivity is good and works well with phantom power as intended. Got good measurements that translated to great sounding filters. for ~70$ you will be hard pressed to find a measurement mic with a calibration file. This is a great VFM.

Just what the Doctor ordered!
I needed a calibrated measurement microphone to use with Sonarwork's ReferenceID room correction software. I have two. 8" studio monitors about a foot from the wall, and the bass responsive is a bit heavy given the small room they're in. Works like a charm. The price can't be beat. Comes with a nice padded carry case.
