Gray Foam Ball... Eyeball
I saw many others use this product to create a DiY Kaotica Eyeball clone. While it may not meet the exact specs of a $200 product, $20 makes it easy to decide of purchasing the real deal is worth $200. Here is what I've discovered. The product as listed for it's purpose is truly accurate. It is sturdy, resilient and doesn't show dirt easily. For my purpose, it was exactly what I was hoping. I was able to cut into it easily with a sharp knife and shape it to some very detailed specs. As a clone of the Kaoitica Eyeball, I can only assume that it roughly fits the acoustic parameters enough to judge a comparison. While not as exact and pretty as the Eyeball, the 'clone' showed me that it did a good job in isolating the mic. It works best in an area that is somewhat untreated to tell the difference. There is an issue with some frequencies being dropped out. They are the high end of the lower frequencies or the lower end of the Mid frequencies. This is easily remedied with a little EQ. It must be pretty popular for this usage or as the purpose for which it was originally intended because they are currently out of stock and don't know when they will be getting more. ... show more

HIGH PRICE FOR IT JUST TO BE A FOAM BALL. WORKED FOR WHAT I NEEDED THOUGH
Great item! I used it to make a homemade Kaotica Eyeball. Works great! Nice Size and Density! My only issue is the fact they inflated the price on this just because they realized what we use it for. Other then that this ball would be sooo much cheaper. Like $15 bucks.

Can be used for a variety of different things
I used this product to make a DIY Mic Isolator and it was a very smooth process. Its not a end all solution but it can definitely help a good space sound better.

I Purchased This Ball To Create...
A very cheap version of a Kaotica Eyeball. These, and similar devices, cost a lot of money! So the seemingly high price for this foam ball pales in comparison! I cut a four inch hole in it about 2/3 deep. I then cut a hole a bit smaller than my dynamic microphone in center of the bottom of the four inch hole. I cut the hole for the microphone all the way through. I slide my microphone in until it stopped. I found it works really well! No extensive and intensive room treatment that would have cost almost as much as the Kaotica Eyeball. All-in-all, this has worked out far better than I had hopes for. My recordings are extremely quiet and without room reflections! I do use, and have used, voice technique which, originally, did limit but, did not remove room reflection. So, voice technique combined with this ball have provided a better than expected result! ... show more

Saved about $200 over a top of the line professional mic filter
Using it as a mic filter and I was actually going to pay $198 for a Kaotica Eyeball but they wanted $25 more to ship a foam ball 5 day ground which I thought was ridiculous. I bought this and cored it out and stuck it on my mic. Looks decent and seems to work great. It only took about 10 minutes to modify it. ... show more

Great for puppetry. Not sure what it's actually supposed to be used for.
I don't know what these are intended for, but I use them to make puppet heads. They are great to stretch fleece puppet skin or fur across and easily cut or shaped. It is fairly dense but light. The foam returns to it's previous shape if you compress it, but I do not know how long term compression would affect it's ability to return to it's original shape. I always recommend this exact ball to anyone needing a form to build a puppet head upon. ... show more

Used for mic isolation ball
I used this to make a microphone isolation chamber. It was extremely useful for the purpose I bought it for. It required a bit of work to make the mic sit properly within it but it works great.

Quality
I’m a very picky person and love quality. Snobby I guess you could say. I just like good quality because you know what to expect. You are literally saving nearly $$200 dollars! Heck I would pay $200 if the quality is right I took a shot and literally had a come up. Meaning just got hooked up.
