Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good and high-quality product, but there are disadvantages.

In general, this is just a good-sounding microphone with a beautiful appearance, a couple of unnecessary (for most) functions and obvious jambs that you would not expect to see in a device for this price. Yes, even if you omit these jambs, for such a price tag you want a much better and cleaner sound. If you don’t stream with a webcam or don’t worry about the appearance of the microphone and its brand, then it’s better to take Chinese counterparts. Briefly about the sound quality: a little…

Pros
  • -Acceptable sound quality - Plugged in and everything works, no drivers needed - Detachable and long Type C to Type A braided cable -Beautiful, fairly bright and flexibly customizable backlight -Touch Mute button -4 microphone directional modes (which I never use) - The microphone itself is light -Resistant complete stand (but not enough height) - There is a 3.5 audio monitoring jack -There is a physical input gain adjustment wheel on the bottom of the microphone.
Cons
  • -There is that well-known dark spot in the middle of the backlight, but it is hardly noticeable and its presence is a necessary design feature, so it does not matter. -Complete spider is taut and does not cope well with the suppression of shocks and table shaking -Connecting USB and Headphones for monitoring is located at the back and it is not very convenient to connect, since the stand leg is also located there - There is a ferrite filter on the wire and it is located close to type C, i. E. to the microphone. As a result, this ferrite filter constantly lies on the table and spoils the whole view, couldn't it have been placed somewhere in the middle or closer to Type A? (fortunately, the wire can be changed to whatever you like) -There is no physical volume setting for microphone monitoring and audio output from PC. By lowering the volume on the system, you reduce the volume and monitoring of the microphone. (Hyper X's proprietary Ngenity software has some volume settings for this whole thing, but they are not flexible and easily accessible.) In general, this is a big minus. -The microphone gain wheel is too easy to scroll (for me), and also has marks that are barely visible in the evening and at night, which also do not show the actual volume level from 0 to 100. Adjust the volume while playing at night and enjoying the backlight in a dark room, wildly uncomfortable.

A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

Before that, there was a Razer Seiren X, the quality is almost the same, but on Hyper X there is less voice distortion and it is easier to process because of this, the appearance of course is a bomb to reduce the price to 10k and it would be generally gorgeous, well, for 12k you can safely take .

Pros
  • Sound, built-in pop filter, microphone mute button, 4 recording modes, settings on the microphone, appearance, spider included.
Cons
  • Too much price even for 12k

The best solution for everyday use and initial streaming. Has some pros Good noise reduction in cordioid mode, coupled with a pop filter, ideal for podcasts and streams. Personally, I used it in blackout mode because the backlight is quite bright and can be quite distracting when playing. Some cons: There may be problems with the micro turn-off button, as it is very sensitive, I also advise using it in a standard mount, since the spider is held insecurely on a pantograph with a standard mount.

Excellent product, the best quality.

The microphone was taken specifically for conversations, and not for songs. I did the sound settings in OBS and everything works fine, I'm happy

Pros
  • Very beautiful, the sound is good, although for this price I would like better. Convenient connection - plugged into the computer and started working, no need to bother with the audio card It is possible to adjust the backlight, the gain level on the micro itself and mute by lightly pressing on the top of the microphone Also included is an adapter for a pantograph, I immediately used it
Cons
  • Without additional processing, the sound does not sound much better than the Behringer c1-u, although unlike the second, this microphone has a minimal amount of self-noise

Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

The impressions are excellent, the microphone came (this is already a plus), the original came, it came quickly, given the urgent delivery, whole, in a new, whole package. Thank you)

Pros
  • I think about its merits full of reviews on YouTube)
Cons
  • Probably only a ferrite filter (a barrel on a wire), which is located very strangely for the native "leg" of the microphone, it is somehow neither here nor there, too far to hide it under the microphone and too close to hide it somewhere behind the keyboard or something - something else, most likely, with a pantograph there will be no such problem.

I'm completely satisfied with the product, it works.

In overall, I am pleased with the purchase; however, prior to making the acquisition, I would prefer to be informed that the opportunities for macOS are significantly limited. Below are some advantages: Excellent sound quality, quick and easy assembly, and it has the appearance of a porch. The disadvantage is that there is no software available for macOS. In point of fact, the color bar is rendered completely worthless.

A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

Very portable microphone that can be used for a variety of activities; whether or not you decide to use it is your own business, but as of right now, this is the greatest microphone for the money. Pros: It blends in extremely well and creates a very peaceful atmosphere within. If your computer is emitting a brilliant radiance, then it will blend in perfectly. Advantages in terms of performance: If you need to turn off the microphone quickly, you can do so by using the sensor that is located on…

Perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Has pros: – Ease of use - Perfect sound - Convenient mute button - Connecting headphones, you can understand how you hear and what is generally heard – Wildly handy sensitivity controller Different cons: As I understand it, the entire line has a jamb, this is a small darkened spot in front of the diodes. But not so critical, sometimes you don’t notice if you don’t look closely

Satisfactory product quality, good price.

With its pros: The sound is not bad, it will do for streams. Backlight too. There are different modes. With its cons: There is no software for poppy, the color cannot be adjusted, other settings cannot be made in the same way

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad purchase, worth the money.

A decent microphone for the price, but you'll need to develop a strategy for working with the gadget. The ease of use, simplicity, and ability to connect straight to a phone and record directly to it are all positive aspects of this product. A pop filter is already incorporated into the microphone. There are not going to be any issues regardless of how much you take and bake into it. Despite this, I went ahead and purchased a pop filter in the hopes of eliminating the hiss. Cons include its…

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

for such money it is better to buy a sound recorder and a microphone, which can be squeezed out even more. but if you are too lazy to do it, then this is the best option Has pros: The sound quality is excellent, plug and play. microphone for those who just want such a microphone, no matter what other indicators Its cons: backlight buzz, but for some reason everyone, if you look at the included microphone from the front, has a dark spot in the middle, but this is more of a nitpick. overpair in…

I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

I read reviews about noise cancellation. I got carried away and deeply regretted it. I write without taking into account third-party software such as bananas and other things. It is zero. I found a golden mean for discord, but this is still not enough. It was possible to drown out only the keyboard, the mouse and some small close sounds, he picks up most of the sounds and quite loudly, judging by the comments of the interlocutors. For such a price there is no pantograph, I had to buy more. I…

Pros
  • - Button off / on the microphone - You can reconfigure the backlight as you want or turn it off altogether -Good assembly -The sound is good like microphones for 3-5 thousand
Cons
  • -Noise reduction, well, roughly speaking, it's just not there -The price is very high, analogues in sound can be found 2-3 times cheaper (I had a cheap micro maono and the interlocutors did not hear the difference from the word "completely") -No pantograph included - The software is useless, it is only needed to adjust the backlight

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Has pros: Quick setup, you can use almost out of the box. Sound quality is great Its cons: A slight imbalance of the native microphone stand, at maximum tilt the microphone falls from the slightest knock on the table

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

Its pros: The sound quality is excellent, the assembly is wonderful, I love this micro. The sound is so cool that you can record covers. If you download the program, you can adjust the backlight and its dynamics Different cons: There is a small dark spot on the rgb backlight on the front side of the micro a little to the right, I don’t know if it’s a marriage or not, keep in mind

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

You can take if finances allow, it is strictly forbidden to take on the latter. I think that there are better options in this price category, but there will be troubles.

Pros
  • Great microphone for high quality sound recording. I switched from a simple Redragon GM-300, the difference is earth and sky :) Nice microphone in every sense, cool compact package with everything you need.
Cons
  • Price
