Probably the best you can get for the money

Everything else I know to sound at least as well as this one costs at least twice more, and this one sounds pretty good.

First mic is a dud…

I purchased this because I’m starting a YouTube channel for reviews. The first mic arrived, nearly packaged and well kept. The construction is sturdy but… when I connected the Xlr cable I get incredible crackling and static. Returning for exchange and we’ll see how the second one shows up. For now, I’d advise to stay away.

Great mic for the price

A great mic for an average price range. It's not jaw-dropping quality but with some production magic it can sound "more expensive".

Simply incomparable

My very first reaction when I got this mic was something like "wow, looks like a professional microphone". In fact, not only looks, but sounds too.

A bit of constructiveness:

— Price. I don't think if there can be any questions. It's affordable to anyone. More expensive mics can cost X times bigger but they probably won't give you more quality.

— Assembly. Frankly, there's some things that could be done better. More frankly, you won't be worried of these things because they don't obstruct you from doing good recordings.

— Sound. I'd like to give it 5 stars, but you'll definitely notice some issues when you record and mix some complex project with many recorded tracks.

Well, this mic is just the legendary one. I recommend it for people who has recently started diving into recording vocals, acoustic guitars, etc. There's no better option for that price.

TOP TOP TOP

I was looking for a good beginner setup to stream, record and just sound professional when gaming and i was not expecting for a 30$ mic to sound so damn good and be of high quality but this mic is amazing for this price.

I already recommended to all my friends and after like 6 months of using this mic daily i didn't expect any issues with it and i also added some plugins for it and it sounds more professional now. Buy and Enjoy guys, this is all i can say about this MIC.

Cheap but good

For home recording I think is one of the best mics under 50 euros. It's also good for discord and for gamers that stream on twitch.

The best cordial budget mic on the market

Every time I have a voice or video call with a new person, they ask me what mic do I have because the quality is amazing.

If you need a studio mic for casual phone calls, or even for professional podcast recording or streaming, look no further!

A great budget-focused alternative

This microphone is a great budget-focused alternative to other microphones at this standard of quality.

It's solid metallic housing, great-sounding capsule and otherworldly value for money are absolutely what makes this microphone great.

Cons?

Hard to find any, to be completely honest. I've used this microphone for

just over a year now, and I can't find any microphone that matches the quality at this price point whatsoever.

A great choice for those starting, experienced in the field, or those who are curious about budget options to some fantastic sounding microphones out there on the market that stick pack a punch, albeit at a much easier to handle price-tag.

Good for the price

With a price tag like this, it is hard to miss with a classic like this. It does what you want it to do - nothing more - nothing less. I use it for both instruments and occasional vocal recordings and I have only positives to say about my experience with this microphone.
