Good mic for the price
Was quite surprised at the quality of the audio from an item at this price level. Quite a heavy and seems a well-made mic.

Amazing for price but gain hungry!
I bought this mic after wanting it for over a year now and it sounds amazing truly podcast quality but there are things you will need too get it running well and without a problem mostly also this mic is super heavy like you can feel the quality just from holding it alone.You are gonna need an xlr cable duh and also a audio interface again duhhh but don't cheap out on these unless you want to get a gain booster which are hard af too buy like finding one in stock that won't break the bank will be like finding a grain of sand. Also get a good xlr cable most aren't expensive and mine was 4 pounds and feels good and won't break.If you are in a windy environment get a pop filter to put over it as the internal pop filter is crap and basically not even a feature.Also if you already have a boom arm or any kind of mic arm it should support it as it supports both 5/8" and 3/8" threaded mic stands so no need for a new one or a janky or overpriced adaptor.My only complaints are the fact they advertise a pop filter built in which I'm sure there is too a degree but it does nothing compared too a real one. And also how on my boom arm it doesn't like too screw on securely as the built in shock mount or stand can turn allowing the mic to move where ever needed means I tighten it as much as I would like but it's not a deal breaker.Overall an amazing microphone and sounds incredible for the price(excluding cables and interface and maybe gain booster if needed) and the fact that with some simple EQ it can sound just like the SM7B which seems too be the standard for mics like these I don't know why when this thing exists. So in short in my opinion (baring in mind i came from a blue snowball condenser mic) this thing is insanely good for the price and I don't think I will ever swap mics now. So if you can afford it get it unless you find something you like more. But if you want a good quality and amazing sounding mic for under 100 pounds then this is the one for you but please do listen to sound tests before you decide as not everyone likes the same sound I like :)

Unbeatable for the money
Unbeatable sound quality and build quality for the money. I do recommend an inline amp, like a subzero MB1 as it a very gain hungery mic.

Great mic with minor headphone buzz
Overall, I was happy with the sound quality – it would have been excellent for podcasting. Very quick and easy to use, and the build quality felt solid and professional.That said, I did notice a very light buzzing sound when I plugged my headphones into the mic directly. It’s not super noticeable, especially once you start recording or monitoring actively, but it is there. Not sure why it was happening.It didn’t affect the actual mic recording at all. But if you’re sensitive to noise in your monitoring, it's just something to be aware of.Still a great mic.

Perfect for beginners
I can't say enough good things about this mic, from the moment I unboxed it, the build quality impressed me considering its price point. It feels sturdy and strong.The sound quality is nothing short of exceptional, my voice comes through rich and clear, with a warm tone that truly enhances my recording experience, this is coming from a Shure sm7b, where my online friends noted that my microphone quality had improved since changing to this mic. despite the lower price point,Its general usefulness makes it a good all round microphone and i would encourage anyone to buy this microphone before considering a higher price point

Too good for me :-)
After years and years spent fiddling with crappy PC mics, I thought, "Screw it, I'll just buy something good."It's good. I spent as much again, if not more, on audio -> USB gear, an XLR signal booster and a floor stand, and the results are excellent. So long as the mic's in the vicinity of my face it'll pick up my voice with an evenness and precision like nothing I've experienced before. To be honest, it's a waste of money for me. It far exceeds my quality needs. And I really don't mind because I just like having a good mic.Two words of warning:- it's heavy, so consider how you're going to mount it- it is, as others say, "gain hungry" -- that XLR signal booster was a necessity

Great for podcasts
Brilliant microphones for podcast, worked really well in my small podcasts studio room. Easy to set up no fuss, lightweight and same colour as image.
