| "The Beta 58 is the SM58 on steroids. The Neodymium Magnet is the key to this mic's performance. Upper harmonics are more pronounced. Kind of warm tube-ish sound. The mid range is clear. The lows are strong and deep."
- Lenny in Huron, OH | "By far the best mic I have ever used! So smooth and just an all around perfect sound! Looks very nice also. If you are looking for a great sounding mic, then the Shure Beta58 is the one for you!"
- William in Villa Rica, GA | | | | |
| "Can't say enough about the quality and ruggedness of this microphone. I love the fact you can just hang the mic over the top of the amp. No loss of tone."
- Stephen in Pooler, GA | "Very easy to place -- since the e906 is flat, all you have to do is plug it in to your cable, hang it over your cab, find that sweet spot and just leave it there."
- Robert in Brooklyn, NY | | | | |
| "I've used it very successfully on toms, kick drum, drum overheads, guitar cabinets, acoustic guitars, horns, hand percussion, etc. I own four of them and plan to buy more."
- Glen in Milwaukee, WI | "Sounds so warm and smooth. The quality can be compared to microphones such as the Neumann U87, which is amazing. The best Rode since the NTK, in my opinion."

| "For the money this mic is a great addition to every home studio. I have been very pleased with the sound on both slower and hard rock applications."
- KB in San Antonio, TX | "'Bubblicious' is the first word that comes to mind since this is a mouthful of juicy sound for your ears."
- A Happy Owner | | | | |
| "This mic sounds like nothing else. It’s got a unique response characteristic in the midrange that really puts the 3-4k front-and-center. It provides exceptional detail to highs without that annoying brittle metallic scratch so many mics succumb to, and the lows are controlled and well-balanced."
- David H in San Diego, CA | "It's not sexy, it's CHARISMATIC! The color, the heavy (almost 1 KG) weight, the hard solid metal it's made out of, the shape and its LAARRGGE grill gives it an attitude."
