    Its a good mic, with nice features. It is just simply overprices at $150 compared to the competition. You can get something very similar for $50 - $75 less.

      Hello,

      There are no mics like this one at those prices even on sale. I'd recommend purchasing our products on sale if you want the best for less.

    Elgato did it again! I wanted to wait for some time to make sure it wasn’t just me loving the hype & it’s not. Prior to this mic I used a blue yeti which I loved and didn’t think I would find something that I like more.

    Love it. I've just now barely started using this mic and getting into how to use it, but so far I love it. The voice quality is a gigantic step up in how it makes me sound vs the headset mic I was using. Can't wait to use it more.

    When I say love Elgato products, I actually do love their products. When this launched I had to get it for my setup which sits perfectly on my desk.

    Best Mic out there at the this price range. I use it for class, zoom meeting and streaming. I get a lot of compliments about the clarity for the mic. I use it for streaming too and the built in mixer is cherry on the top.

    Great for zooms and creating. The killer feature here is the anti-distortion feature. You can yell into it without over modulation. Makes it great for someone who doesn’t want to mess with audio too much.

    This mic is perfect for streaming and podcasts. It syncs easily with all of my other elgato equipment. But, it doesn’t have to used with elgato items. Works with other brands, as well.
