    Started out working great then all of a sudden about 10 days before the returnable date it completely failed. Static, low, low volume and tinny sounding from the other parties in a zoom or join me call. Horrible!

    I was dissatisfied with the mike. After opening the mike and atempting to use it I eventually learned that it did not work with windowa 10. I am partially to blame but the package lettering was in very small lettering and store help was no where to be found.

    Not very satisfied with this, I know it did not say that it was compatible with Windows 8.1 but this is just a USB microphone. Was able to work on Windows 7 and Windows 10 Preview release so don't understand why it would not work.
