MAONO XLR/USB Dynamic Microphone Kit, RGB Podcast Mic with Software, Mute, Gain Knob, Volume Control, Boom Arm for Streaming, Gaming, Voice-Over, Recording-PD200XS White

I bought this for a podcast I was appearing on and to make some videos. I didn’t wasn’t to spend much and had read positive reviews.It was very easy to set up and my laptop recognised the microphone immediately. There is a companion app that allows you to change settings which is very easy to do. It could have better instructions as to what each setting did, but I managed to work it out.I was able to get very clear sound with it with very little “hiss” that I have had with other microphones. It offers exceptional value for money.The build quality seems good as well.

Brilliant starter mic !! sound is clear and doesn't pick up much of the surrounding noise unless it's loud. Easy set up, honestly really good for a first mic !!

I have been using this mic and stand for over half a year and I’m still really impressed by the sound quality and some of my friends have been so impressed by the quality they also bought them, only bad thing is that the stand can come lose which doesn’t happen too often only every 2 months or so

Really solid mic for the price and easily good enough if you are not working at a professional level. I've used it for streaming, general gaming online and also a small amount of recording my acoustic guitar and vocals. Yes, there are higher quality bits of gear for this but at the price point its very good bang for your buck. The mic feels solid and has a good look to it.The free Maono software is fairly decent too for free apps. There's a general live monitoring/settings app and a streaming app that gives you control over sound effects etc to use while streaming.With regard to the arm, it does the job and does hold its angles fairly well. It's not particularly robust and the base is particularly poorly designed and fragile, but as long as you support the base/desk grip when you move the arm around, it's functional. You can find lots of different sellers selling the same cheap arm design. Up to you if you go for the bundle or order an arm separately. I would consider it as something to get you started before you consider buying a more robust arm. Bit of a shame as it's just the base that's weak the rest of the arm is pretty good.Happy with the purchase overall, will probably end up replacing the arm at some point.

I bought this for my grandson for Christmas so haven't used it myself but I CAN tell you that he is delighted with it and says it was really quick and easy to set up. He uses it for streaming and discord and podcasts and says the sound quality is very good.I understand that this is an entry level microphone which I bought at a very reasonable price and I am really pleased that he is happy with it.He spends a lot of time with me and the only downside is that I hardly see him nowadays because he is always in his room talking to his friends online with his new microphone .Thanks for making him a happy boy x

Decided to replace my hyperx quadcast, looked at the shure mv7 but saw a review of this pitted against the shure and others and thought for the price it looked very good, so decided to tey it. Im so glad i did.Sound quity is superb. Plug and play compatibility is easy to set uo. Quality if the mic is good. Wierd getting used to talking into the front top of it as my last one was all over pick up. Weight wise its not heavy and well built.Rgb looks cool and if its too bright you can turn it down in the maono link software.Overall im very happy with my purchase and never heard of this comoany before but happy i took the chance. Ive had expensive mics before and have to say sound quality is up there for sure even though its on a budget. Well worth considering if you want a good looking quality stand alone mic

I bought this microphone as the one I was using was an extremely old microphone. I set it up using the UBS-C to USB-A the "plug and play" feature is extremely useful. I use it to talk to friends is Discord and for content creation and its incredibly good. The sound quality is even better than I excepted and it look great too!. Anyone who's creating a podcast, streaming, or content creation this would be great budget microphone.

A very good microphone, however ran in to some unresolvable technical problemscustomer support were extremely helpful in troubleshooting and offered to refund outwith Amazon return window.
