I'm thinking of buying a mic for recording acoustic guitar and some vocals.

My local store has got the following:
Shure PG57/PG58/SM58-LCE (dynamic mics)
Behringer C1/C2/C3 (condenser mics)

So...
Are the Shure mics good, and what are the differences between them?
Do I need some sort of amplifier, or can i plug them straight into my soundcard(audigy 2)?
Are the Behringer ones better, and if so, how do I used phantom power?
