Very solid for the price point. You do have to talk fairly close with it being a dynamic mic for the best quality (4 or so inches away). Built quality is almost all metal. Paired it with a boom mic arm and it works like a charm.
Excelente calidad y buen sonido, hay que conectarlo con phantom power para que tenga buen volumen.
Ok, so Not a complete 100% because it needs more gain, but overall not a bad mic FWIW. I needed a dynamic mic for simple work (nothing too professional. Internet radio stuff) and the dynamic mic was the best fit. In my studio, I needed to take advantage of how the dynamic mic worked having to be closer to the mic as its less sensitive and needs you to be closer.That said, I already had a Maono AU A04 which is a good USB mic, but picks up too much ambient background. This dynamic mic seems to pickup very well for what I need and is not as sensitive to ambient sounds.I produce content on Youtube where I have a challenge with my shotgun mic (Synco) picking up everything and this one in my test does the trick.I do have to EQ this in a rather surgical way, attentuating some offending frequencies, but I think I dialed it in now. I do have the gain all the way up and still have to boost the gain in the DAW. What a shame. But overall, I can work with it.So... Its got a good, non-boxy sound to it which yes, you still have to do some EQ, but the EQ isn't heinous.Good mic and not if it will stand the test of time... I might review it again.Recommended: Yes. Depending on what you need to do.UPDATE: Do be careful tho. It does seem to have a bit of self noise and mine tends to pickup some EMF. THAT is on my end, not the mic, but the self noise can be mitigated with EQ. Also, its a bit quiet. You'll have to amp it up a bit, which can exacerbate the self noise.
I've been looking around for a good affordable dynamic mic to use as a travel podcast mic and reading the reviews, along with watching some YouTube videos featuring the sound quality of this mic, I decided to give it a chance (especially because I got it when it went on a flash sale for $35! So keep a lookout for when this mic goes on sale again)Pros:- Great quality sounding mic- Does not need phantom power to run (simply plug and play into your audio interface of choice)- Low noise when not speaking into the mic- Lightweight and perfect to pack and travel with- comes with everything you need to record, including cables, except the audio interface of course.- all metal body and stand, seems to be made with good quality materials.Cons:- Needs a decent amount of gain, so make sure your audio interface has good enough pre amps and gain to turn this mic UP- Handling noise is an issue, do not touch this mic while recording or be very careful if you have to.- You will definitely need a windscreen or pop filter for plosives which is not included with this package.- Youll need to get comfortable with some audio editing to really get this mic to sound amazing rather than good enough.Overall it is a great mic for beginners and pros alike. Seems like it will last you a while, and you'll be able to grow with it the more you learn about audio recording and editing. If this mic is what your budget allows and are on edge of whether or not to invest, I would say to just go for it and you will be surprised and excited to know that you got a great quality mic at such an affordable price!

Very solid silent broadcast microphone.
This mic was recommended by a voiceover company I'm working for, my analog mic and tube preamp were too noisy. I was initially skeptical that a mic this inexpensive could deliver, but on their recommendation I purchased it. Wow were they right! For this price, everyone should be able to have clear podcast and voice over recordings. My voice sounds great on this mic, and honestly it rivals even my pro recording setup which costs over four figures. You may need to boost the signal in post, but this mic will get you there.

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.

The MAONO USB Dynamic Microphone delivers clear, professional-quality sound that works great for voiceovers in my videos and podcasts. Setup is super easy—just plug and play—and it does a good job blocking background noise, so my recordings sound clean and crisp even when I’m not in a soundproof studio. If you create video content and need reliable audio for narration or voiceovers, this mic is a solid choice.
