    • Good investment for the future pod caster or a high quality way to yell at friends.
Style: SM7dB
Podcast industry standard for a reason. If you are just chatting or want a solid mid grade mic that is good enough to record songs on this is a good pick. If you have the money there are better mics on the market for the purpose of song and instrumental recording such as a Neumann. Just be ready to shell out four digits per mic for those. Those of us that want a good general use mic that we will most likely not outgrow get the SM7(dB). You WILL have to buy extra stuff to make this mic work, and WILL NEED to spend time setting the mic up. It is not plug and play. You can slap everything together needed and just go with it, but you will sound bad. Search online for how to set the mic and your XLR amp up properly. The SM7dB is the upgraded version of the the series and I bought it over the normal SM7 because it takes into account customer feedback about the older version. If you want to save some money the normal SM7 just needs a good dial tunable XLR amp and some decent audio software to make up for its shortcomings. The money you save getting the baseline SM7 over the SM7dB will allow you to buy a decent XLR amp if budget is a concern. So the choice over the SM7 or the SM7dB is budget vs personal preference. Things you will need to run this mic: -Mic stand or boom arm -Special adapter to fit the mic to the stand or boom properly if needed -XLR amp -XLR cable (do not be cheap) -High quality USB-C to USB-A cable or USB-C only cable to connect the XLR amp to your PC -Recording software of choice (freeware works fine) -Fine tuning of operating software settings to match the mic My setup with the SM7dB and everything mentioned above totaled about $900 USD all said and done. You can save a couple hundred by picking the SM7, a cheaper XLR amp, and a lower price boom/stand than I did, but this should give you a rough idea what the true cost of this mic will be. Keep in mind this is still below what it cost for just a Neumann TLM 103 mic with nothing to run it, and that mic is what professional radio and recording studios have considered industry standard for over 25 years. So if you aren't doing professional singing and want to be able to run the whole setup for less than what the cost of a Broadway quality mic alone is, get the SM7(dB). ... show more

This is and absolutely great microphone! Here is why The Room Rejection Is Incredible: If your room sounds like a hollow echo chamber or you have loud neighbors, this mic is a lifesaver. Because it’s a dynamic mic with a tight cardioid pattern, it completely ignores my noisy desktop fan and the echo bouncing off my bare drywall.That Rich "Radio Host" Warmth: When you get right up on the grille (about 2 inches away), it gives your voice a thick, smooth, broadcast-like weight. It rounds out harsh, sharp consonant sounds beautifully.Built Like a Tank: The all-metal build is incredibly reassuring. The integrated swivel mount and heavy-duty housing feel premium and durable enough to last a decade without breaking a sweat. ... show more

    • Worth the price tag
Style: SM7dB
Sound quality is outstanding. I use this for gaming, streaming, and recording. It’s pricy, especially once you factor in an XLR cable, mount, and audio interface, but the vocal texture and fidelity is next level good. The preamp is a nice addition to an already very capable microphone.

    • Impressive Sound Quality, Build, and Affordability!
Style: SM7B
I recently got my hands on the Vocal Dynamic Microphone, and I must say, it has truly exceeded my expectations on every front. From its remarkable sound quality to the excellent build materials and its unbeatable value for money, this microphone is a winner in every sense. The sound quality produced by this vocal dynamic microphone is simply outstanding. Whether I'm recording vocals for music, podcasts, or voiceovers, it captures the nuances and richness of my voice with remarkable clarity. The depth and warmth in the recordings are truly a testament to the microphone's exceptional capabilities. It has added a professional touch to my recordings that I didn't expect at this price point. The build quality and materials used in this microphone are also impressive. It feels sturdy and well-constructed, giving me confidence that it will hold up well over time. The attention to detail in the design is evident, and I appreciate the thoughtful inclusion of features like the shock mount that helps eliminate unwanted vibrations and handling noise. This microphone truly feels like a premium product, and its durability adds to its overall value. Speaking of value, I am genuinely amazed by how much this microphone offers for its price. Comparable microphones with similar sound quality and build often come with a much higher price tag, making this vocal dynamic microphone an incredible bargain. It's a testament to the brand's commitment to delivering top-notch quality without breaking the bank. In conclusion, the Vocal Dynamic Microphone has earned a well-deserved five-star rating from me. Its impressive sound quality, quality of material, and unbeatable value for money make it a must-have for any aspiring or seasoned content creator. Whether you're a musician, podcaster, or voice actor, this microphone will undoubtedly elevate your recordings to a whole new level. Don't hesitate to invest in this gem – you won't be disappointed! ... show more

    • A true staple of audio quality.
Style: SM7B
I never used to think I liked the SM7B. But as it turns out, what I didn't like was that anyone on YouTube or Twitch who could get their hands on this microphone would use it without having any idea what they were doing. They would over process this microphone or process it in such a way to ruin all the best things about it. But before you buy it, there are a few things to consider. First, this is a very dark microphone. That doesn't mean that it's going to make you sound deep and commanding. Your voice will still sound like your voice, but if you were looking for something that compliments your voice in such a way, this microphone could be that. But if your voice is already very deep, this can exaggerate this detail in your voice and even ruin the experience for some listeners. Second, this microphone is particularly hard to drive, especially if you don't have the right means to do so. Some people will tell you things like "I managed to drive it just fine with my Behringer UM2". But let me tell you, doing so is possible but by no means practical. This will introduce extremely high amounts of "Noise" (Static), and when I tried to replicate this myself, I encountered an issue. As I turned the volume near max the volume curve made a sharp turn upward, making it very hard to control what volume it was set to. Finally, just cause this is a dynamic microphone, that doesn't mean it doesn't pick up any background noise. Actually this microphone picks up quite a noticeable amount of background noise. So don't think this is going to completely remove the sound of people talking in the other room or that annoying sound of reflection from your room not having any acoustic treatment. It might be a little bit better than some condensers at this, it is by no means the best microphone for isolating. But what about what truly makes this microphone stand out? Why should you buy this microphone? First, it's an absolute staple in studios big and small, so if for no other reason, the fact that it's so recognizable and loved by so many. Second, this microphone offers a smooth sound like nothing else I've ever seen in its price range. The soft high end and flat mids, make for a smooth frequency response. In addition, the over all sonic signature of this microphone's quality, as well as it being a dynamic microphone makes for one smooth sounding microphone. And finally, if for no other reason, the bragging rights that comes with this microphone. While all your friends have their cheap knock offs and SM7B wannabes, you can know the true feeling of owning an SM7B. But in all seriousness, the SM7B has a name and reputation to uphold so you know that sure will have to deliver when it comes to quality. I hope this answered any questions you might have about this microphone and if you should buy it. ... show more

    • The Cleanest, Warmest Voice I’ve Ever Recorded
Style: SM7dB
The Shure SM7DB is absolutely incredible. I’ve used different microphones before, but nothing comes close to the clarity and warmth of this one. The built-in preamp is a huge advantage — I don’t need a Cloudlifter or any external booster. Just plug it in, set the gain, and the audio is clean with zero noise. The build quality feels premium and solid. The pop filter is excellent, the lows are smooth, and the highs are natural without being harsh. My voice sounds fuller, more professional, and way more consistent on recordings and videos. If you’re doing YouTube, podcasts, streaming, or any kind of voice work, this mic instantly gives you studio-level sound. Absolutely worth the investment. ... show more

Great for recording. The built in pre-amp is almost too much. Crystal clear on spoken and clean vocals and captures all the natural gain in metal vocals. Speedy but worth it.

    • Fantastic Mic!
Style: SM7B
Pros -Solid Build Quality -Fantastic Sound -Built in Shock Mount -Easy to physically adjust -Comes with 2 foam windscreens (one for general use [you see in most pics], and a thicker one to get right up against it) -Comes with smaller thread adapter Cons -Likely will need a cloudlifter (depending on your interface) *I'm using this with a Focusrite Scarlett Solo on a Rode PSA1 Boom Right off the bat, I'm not a audio professional, so I can't technically tell you why this mic is great. But for my uses, it is absolutely FANTASTIC! I got this to replace my AT2020 because I learned that Dynamic mics are better for picking up vocals only in front of the mic itself, and that's exactly what this does. I use this for streaming, gaming, and generally talking to friends on discord, and it's extremely nice not needing to use any software processing to isolate my voice and get a clean sound. The reason why I didn't put the price as a con is because it's much easier (and possibly cheaper) than treating my room with sound dampening foam and such. It really does a great job at isolating my voice, and running through the Focusrite, my gain can be high with almost no static from the gain being near max. This is where the cloudlifter will come in. From my understanding, it's recommended that your interface be capable of outputting ~75dB to power this mic, however the cloudlifter can boost your interface by ~25dB without introducing static. Basically the cloudlifter lets you phantom power your dynamic mic (dynamic mics don't directly take phantom power). Since you will probably need a cloudlifter, you'll also need another xlr cable because. Aside from likely needing a cloudlifter, there's not really anything negative I could come up with. It does exactly what it's supposed to do with great quality. If you're eyeing this, you probably already know that they used the SM7B to record Michael Jackson's Thriller back in the day, so it rightfully has Legendary status. If you're new into higher quality audio, I recommend the Focusrite Scarlett Solo which is right around $100. I wouldn't recommend going less than that because you start risking less clean audio. It's also a must to get a cloudlifter so you're not maxing out your gain. The volume and quality will be much better. All in all, this was a solid purchase. Audio is very subjective, so definitely listen to some sound tests on YouTube before you make your decision. While this mic is perfect for my needs, it might not be for yours. When investing in equipment like this, generally, the price reflects the quality, and you need multiple components to get it working properly. These are all things to consider before making a purchase. If you're looking for a really good Dynamic mic, you can't go wrong with this. ... show more
