I have the 609 ,i was told the 609 has a more vintage sound than the 906 .
I sometimes use it to mic a small amp to the PA . my amp has a line out but the sound is better thru the PA with this mic .
Another use for my 609 is , I have a resonator guitar ,the guitar does not have a pick up , so i attach the 609 to the front of the resonator , to use it as a pick up . the mic is low z but i do plug this into an amp .

I have the e906. I just wanted something for micing my amps for larger venues. I think either is an okay choice. Personally, I never tested the two side-by-side. I just bought the 906 based on some reviews I read. I’m happy with it. Different price points. Here are some comparison thoughts from homestudiobasics.com:
Detail
The e906 provides more detail and articulation in the mid-range going towards the treble.
It will simply sound better to your ears.
Mid-range and Treble
The 906 has a beefier mid-range, and also comes across as more smooth in the high end.
Frequency Response
Because the 906 has a wider range, it seems to render instruments and recordings, in general, more true to life than the 609. Because of this, and the fact that it has onboard filters, you’ll EQ less after the fact.
Overall sound
With all that said, these mics share a very similar sound signature, but the 906 is definitely more full-bodied and clearly sounds a lot better.
If you don’t take anything else away from this, remember that.
By and large, the 906 is going to need less tweaking and EQ than the 609.
It’s going to sound closer to what you intended the first time.
