5 out of 5 stars Great Audio   August 1, 2010
FineArtVideo.com (South Florida, USA)
I use this for voice over recording. The tonal quality is warm and pleasing while rejecting quite a bit of background noise from nearby computer fans. Solid build quality. It looks and sounds like a much more expensive mike. Only when you get into mikes costing four times as much do you begin to get better sound quality, and even then, it's subjective and not a drastic difference. You simply can't find anything else even close to the sound and build quality of this mike for 100 dollars.


5 out of 5 stars Great Mic low price   June 14, 2010
C. Barnes (USA)
Not the best mic in the world, but easily worth the small sum of money. The mic sounds like it was triple or quadruple the cost. Using it for a thendusr podcast if you want to take a preview I(Chris) start using it on episode 16. It sounds pretty big. I am still playing around with the placement to get the most out of this mic. It does need a pre amp with 48V phantom power. Check the USB version of this (c01u) if you do not have a pre amp.

I'm sure there are better mics out there, but I haven't used one. This mic is clear and sounds great. I'd recommend it to anyone doing recording at home. It seems well made as well.

A very affordable mic that made a tremendous difference in my sound. I can't really put into words how happy I am with this product.
