Great mike for the price

Pros:Small, Lightweight, stereo connection records both channels (left/right). Frequency response seems pretty good for a very low cost mic. I compared this to a much more expensive audio-technica and this mike actually beats it. I tried it with both voice and my guitar. Keep in mind this is not a "PRO" quality mike. More than likely you will be greatly limited by your audio source before this mike. 1/8" plugs are only used in consumer grade equipment with horrible noise levels.
Cons:There are really no cons, this mike does what it says.
Other Thoughts:For the price I cannot believe the build quality and the performance of this mike. I made a quick recording of my Gibson G1 Classic and will upload it into the video section so you can hear the quality. The recording was done with audacity using a cheap USB audio adapter (like 8 bucks) and this mike. The levels were set prior to recording and there was no other filtering done so this is as raw as it gets. Of course the video compression will probably take its toll on the quality but you will get the picture.
Bottomline:IF you need a mike to connect to your laptop get this it has great pickup and is relatively directional so it will help to block out all that side noise.

Sturdy feeling

Pros:The build quality of this microphone are SUPERB. It feels compact and looks great on my desk. I don't think you could get any better peice of plastic. The sound quality is somewhere between average and good. Cable length is also fine. The stand weight a lot (filled with sand) and the actual microphone is light, great combo.
Cons:Altough it looks great and feels perfect in your hand i was slightly disappointed at the sound quality BUT this may just be my microphone becouse the factory may improve the elements from time to time (I bought it when it was brand new on DTW). With microphone boost on the sound quality is just as you expect from a 50$ mic.
Other Thoughts:Great for Skype, Msn you name it! Works as a normal microphone (3,5mm) would.
Bottomline:If you are looking for a small handy microphone that never breaks this is just the right SKU. Your friends will ask you if you have started a band with this in your room!

Other Thoughts:In the pictures the mic looks smaller, its not so small.I used to plug it to my laptop and record live sessions of my heavy metal band, its not perfect for this but much better than conventional computer mics.
Bottomline:if you wanna a mic for your computer, buy it.

Pros:Seems like a nice mic, I bought it to use in amateur web radio and skype talking. Not really much else to say, I thought the quality was good for its price, and if it would have worked I would have gotten another and recommended it to friends. The mic stand is heavy and very nice.
Cons:Seemed like a pretty nice microphone on the web, but when I got it it wouldnt work at all, so I just threw it into the trash after trying it on a couple of PC's. Im not sure if anyone else head a problem with dead on arrival mic.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline:Its a pretty nice microphone if you get a working one. Would recommend it, not sure if anyone else had problems. Maybe I will buy another one, guess only very few are broken. Didnt expect that much quality, but the build quality seems decent, and the mic stand is useful and heavy.

Amazing Microphone - Super Sensitive !

Pros:This is 10 times more sensitive than the most sensitive mic I have ever used for computers.In your sound card settings, there is an option called "microphone boost". I had to actually turn this OFF. If I turn the 'mic boost' on, this microphone will record my voice from 50 feet away. If your ear can hear a sound, even a faint voice, then this microphone will pick it up.Nice build
Cons:The mic does not fit squarely into the stand. It works, but it seems like the stand was designed for a different mic.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline:SPECTACULAR MIC !
