My suggestion would be to obtain a Shure 444.

You would most likely be just as happy, or perhaps happier.

I've gone to Shure mics since I became licensed in 1980.

I've got a couple of 444s and also a 737.

Much better response curves.  Match the natural human voice, unless one 
should happen to be "Pee Wee Herman".
