Very solid silent broadcast microphone.

Unfortunately I received damaged XLR cable.

good

There's not a great deal more that I can say that hasn't already been said. This mic has a nice, warm sound, good build quality, good noise and feedback rejection, all at a fantastic price. Use a FET preamp such as Fethead or cloud lifter. I was feeling adventurous and disassembled the mic so you can see what's inside. Edit on 9/14/24 I recorded a song with this mic and the tone is good. Sensitivity is good across the dynamic range of my voice when singing. My only issue is the peaks are a little distorted due to overdriving the input into the computer software. I only used a little EQ and added a very short delay and room reverb. My wife and kids were upstairs and not really being quiet but none of that shows up in the recording. The recording chain is as follows: Maona mic > Triton Audio Fethead > Mixer > USB interface > Audacity. I wanted to show what the most basic setup could get you in terms of sound quality If you play the video you can tell that the way the mic picks up my voice is very consistent. There isn't a need for lots of EQ or compression unless there's a specific sound you are trying to get by doing so. Another reviewer mentioned offending frequencies but I didn't really notice any of that. Even the low end is flattering for my voice, which is unusual since I tend to roll off the lows quite a bit with other mics. This means that the male vocal range will do well with this in DJ, podcasting or voice-over work. Overall, I am very happy with this mic.

Excelente calidad y buen sonido, hay que conectarlo con phantom power para que tenga buen volumen.

Nice product. Sound is incredible!!!

Lo compré para empezar un podcast y la verdad me sorprendió la calidad del audio. Sé que hay mejores micrófonos porque obviamente no es el mejor pero la calidad del sonido es muy buena en verdad, con una buena interfaz (porque eso sí que necesita una ganancia alta) y una pequeña corrección en post el audio queda excelente! Lo recomiendo.
