I recently started a YouTube channel, Hardware 570 check it out! : ), and I have been experimenting with a bunch of different mics. The only reason I gave it 4 stars on build quality is because the shock mounts that come with it (you get 2) are kind of flimsy but that’s the only thing I can find to fault it on. I started with a cheapo PoP lav mic and that worked pretty well, but sounded a bit hollow/tinny. Then I bought the Neewer NW-700 condenser mic kit. It sounds just okay, and that’s only if you’re within 2-3 inches of the mic. For how “animated” of a talker I am it’s hard to constantly stay within that small range of the mic.Now this little guy is PERFECT. The audio quality is absolutely fantastic, running it through the media mod on my Hero 8 Black. I did some testing with it doing just vocal stuff, as well a cranked up stereo with a big woofer, and it captures the entire range right down to the thumping bass beautifully. The highs and mids are crisp and clear and the low bass tones are rich and deep.The volume level is fantastic as well. Just to give you an idea, I had to take the decibel boost off on the Media Mod because with it the signal was just too hot.If you’re getting into blogging or podcasts, or anything that requires respectable audio, this is an awesome product. It’s well built, comes with everything you’ll need to use it, and the audio quality is just amazing.
