I always find the SM7B vs RE20 debate interesting because of the two, when it comes to recording vocals, the SM7b is typically seen in recording studios with singers, where the RE20 is typically seen in radio stations with the radio announcers, and in voice-over studios. Then I read threads like this that would have you believe that RE20 common for vocals (singing), in the studio. I just don't see that in my travels or on the internet for that matter. Some posted the RE20 as being "detailed". Perhaps some feel that it is more detailed than the SM7b (I don't have an opinion either way), but if I want clarity/detail, neither of those mics would be my first choice.
