  • Studio-Quality Sound — Worth Every Penny
Style: SM7B
The Shure SM7B is hands-down one of the best microphones I’ve ever used. Whether you’re recording vocals, podcasts, voiceovers, or streaming, this mic delivers rich, warm, and professional-grade sound that instantly levels up your audio game. What really sets it apart is how well it handles background noise. It captures your voice with incredible clarity while rejecting unwanted room sound — perfect for untreated spaces. It’s built like a tank, feels premium, and you can tell it’s made to last. You’ll need a good audio interface or preamp with enough gain to drive it properly, but once it’s set up right, the results are incredible. If you’re serious about your sound, the SM7B is absolutely worth the investment. A true industry standard for a reason. ... show more

  • Shure SM7B is the Best Money can Buy, Rich Voice Vocals
Style: SM7B
Shure SM7B Microphone is one of the best ever tested: Vocal Dynamic Studio Mic for Broadcast, Podcast, Streaming, XLR, Rugged Construction, with Detachable Windscreen, Smooth Sound, Warm Vocals. I’ve been around a large inventory of sound equipment. The SM7B is the Go To Mic for vocal productions, period. Quite frankly I can’t think of a Better one. Yes, buy Dynamite’s InLine preamp using phantom power from one’s RODE PodCaster Duo audio mixer, if we’re In Studio creating vocal content, as I do as FAU4U on YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook Live every Morning, combined with ECAMM’s hosting software. The SM7B is well worth the Investment, regardless of price, and AMAZON is the place to get all products (mentioned: Shure SM7B, Dynomite SE Electronic inline preamp, plus RodeCaster Duo) delivered quickly all for about $1k.

  • 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

  • Best Mic for Desktop Recording I have ever used!
Style: SM7dB (Built-In Preamp)
I don't write a lot of reviews. After a handful of Google searches to find the best mic for desktop recording while not using a sound booth, everyone basically says this is the microphone to get. They are not wrong. I don't care if you're just starting out or you're a seasoned influencer or podcaster, while the price of the mic is double or triple the cost of other entry-level hardware, don't skimp when it comes to your audio. The wrong hardware will make you sound cheap and terrible. I'm recording for a professional presentation using Keynote on a MacBook Pro in addition to recording audio for how-to explainer videos. All of the internal mics from different pieces of hardware I have, including air pods, video conferencing speaker/mic, even the MacBook's own internal mic were ALL terrible. Is this how I really sound when talking to co-workers on Zoom or Teams? Anyway, after installing the Shure SM7 mic onto a Shure boom with Shure's MVX2U audio USB interface (make sure you have a 6-foot HDMI-capable shielded USB-C cable) I was ready to rock. I plugged in the mic and just started recording out of the box. The sound quality from this mic is AMAZING. No fiddling. No volume adjusting. Just pure, rock-solid audio of my voice that blew me away. Even my musician wife was amazed and then she wanted to try it. I have bought other mics before, but this one is everything the review sites say it is. Yes, it's expensive. And worth every penny if you absolutely need professional-quality audio. ... show more
