Lastly, it is understandable that everyone wants to save money, but consider two things:

Since this is your career, you want to sound your absolute best, and sounding your best should help you pay for your investment.

If you do the research, you can still find the best microphone for you and your current situation.

The best advice will most likely come from the engineers you work most closely with. Engineers in the voice over industry often have the benefit of hearing many different microphones on many different voices. Not only do they know what they like, but they may also know your voice and the sound of your room well enough to know which microphones will work best for you.

Also, if you are working with them closely already it may mean that you are already earning money with them and that is the best reason to seek their advice and make a decision that will help keep them happy with your sound.

Nothing can replace the experience of actually testing several microphones and listening to the myriad of choices and sounds that different microphones offer.

It should be noted that there are several microphones that are considered voice over industry standards and the only reasons to not choose one of them are:

1)if you absolutely can not afford them

2) if they do not sound as good on your voice as something else.

For voiceovers or voice acting, the Neumann U87, TLM 103 and Sennheiser 416 are industry standards because of their well known characteristics and sound quality.

Therefore, engineers and producers generally prefer to work with these microphones.
