Great microphone Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
The Electro Voice 719 is a ceramic microphone. Most in this design are the model 619 dynamic type, thus the 719 is more rare. Compared to an EV 630, the 719 has better high frequency response. On the air using AM, it is much preferred to the EV 630. The EV 630 is better suited for SSB use.
The EV 719 frequency response is more like the famous Astatic D-104. The D-104 requires a 5 meg ohm input resistor to have lower response to 150 Hz. The EV 719 is not as sensitive to the input resistor at 5 meg ohm to achieve a lower frequency lower response.
I consider the EV 719 as an alternate to the D-104 in a more attractive package. Used prices are $35 to $60 (2020).
