Easy to setup. If the filter was symmetrically attached and goes further out from the mic - it would solve this problem entirely. Love the premium quality pop filter which comes with it.

The build quality, look and feel of this microphone is astounding, it is the best looking microphone in the world in my opinion. AMAZING Mic! I also think it's more sensitive to the S's than my old mic, but this could be a direct result of having to be physically closer to the mic due to the reduced gain.

However, if you have a bit of background noise, then I would recommend that you look into the Samson Q9U or any other Dynamic USB microphone. Pretty sure it could be cut by 1/3 to a half with some sensible packaging design. I have children and I hear the occasional car passing in front of my window, so in my case for most instances I still prefer dynamic mics due to the inherent noise rejection.

Yes, you have to be quite in your room, you have to close the windows and preferably you have to be home alone for your recordings, but you would do that even with a dynamic mic too. That said it could be a result of me spending a bit more time to set it up correctly software side, with reduced gain at the OS level. The microphone is fantastic and the build quality is great. The mic has a quality, solid, heavy metal feel to it.

I really like this mic, and it has been a significant step up for the quality of the video tutorials that I do. In less than a week I got the package right to my house, thanks to UPS so very much, they are the best! The bigger problem is that the shock mount limits access to the monitoring dials, where the dials are blocked by the shock mount's metal. It is a little expensive but good things are at the end of the day.

The mic itself looks great with the included metal pop filter and fit together quite snuggly. To be fair, as someone who's just starting out with streaming, I don't think it's a deal breaker. I'm no audiophile so I can only say, I can notice the differences in sound quality vs my £30 desk mic.
