"Don't always look for the negative."

Feature:
It came with a shock mount wich is cool cause they cost an extra 35 dollars tha nobody wants to spend and if i'm not mistaking it came with a free pop filter too. Also the low noise quality is great.

Quality:
Its not reinforced steel so don't play football with it.But it seems like it will last as long as you take care of it and don't get it moist.

Value:
Value is a 11 a hundred bucks come on compared to three regular priced i think this can fit any body's budget.

Desirability:
Its kinda sexy my recorder (br1180) is silver adn the two go together pretty good.

Sound:
ITS A GREAT MIC ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT IT, BUT AT THIS PRICE AND SOUND QUALITY IF YOUR HAVING PROBLEMS ITS MORE THAN LIKELY YOUR SET UP OR YOUR VOCALS. lAST WORDS YOU'LL GET YOUR MONEYS WORTH PLUS INTEREST.

Support:
I wouldn't know.

Overall:
If you know what you doing and keep it positive you'll love this mic just take care of it very well and practice practice practice cause if you got you can make a hit singinig in a tin can so don't listen to a lot of negative reviews have some guts and try it for yourself.

"Good for beginners!"

Feature:
No roll-off's or nothing. Just plug and play.

Quality:
I must say, I've had that thing on a boom stand that was all the way extended up and out, and of course it came teetering down microphone-faced first. This has happened 3 times and I've heard no difference in the sound after all the blows its had straight to its head. There are dents though.

Value:
I'd say it's good for someone who is just getting into recording, as it was for me like 2 or 3 years ago. It'll make some kid happy, that's for sure. Especially for the price.

Sound:
For its price, it's pretty damn good. There is some piercing sibilence, especially in that ear-bleeding 7k region, clipping and all. Depends what preamp you use and your placement. However, it surprisingly has a rather nice low-end response. I could name a bunch of little technical problems I have with it, but 1)A beginner in most cases would not care, and 2) it's $100, you get what you pay for.
