Review on 🎀 Shure CVG18-B/C Gooseneck Condenser Microphone with 18-Inch Length, Inline Pre-Amp, Flange Mount, Cardioid Pattern in Black by Michael Tran

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Really VERY happy with this mic

That's all a Shure should have. Very good microphone at a good price. I use it as a table top/pedestal and it's great. Read the other reviews carefully so you know what you're getting. If you don't have an XLR jack where you want to use it, you'll have to order the base separately (picture is deceptive). So this isn't as good a deal as it seems at first glance - it's a long one. I ordered the 12" version. The gooseneck is 12" long, the mic head adds an inch, the connector adds another 4", and the base if you use one adds 2". So a 12" mic is actually 18-19" long. Fine for podium use, but an 18" would be unsuitable for the gig I originally ordered it for (thanks for the warning, Wheeler). He needs phantom power. saved because my zoom recorder has it.

Well worth the effort to install with the Shock Mount. Sounds are so crystal clear.
