Mejor de lo que pensaba.
La calidad de fabricación tanto del microfono como del brazo está GOD, para el precio la verdad es que la calidad es casi incuestionable. Eso sí, recomiendo el utilizar el microfono con una consola o interfaz de audio donde controlar la ganancias, porque en crudo la verdad es que vas a tener inconveniente con el mínimo ruido que hagas, ya que se escucha todo. Yo en lo personal preferí conectarlo a una consola de audio y va joya.Si tendría que comprar otro microfono barato, volvería a comprar este.

Cheap, but good
It's good especially for a portable microphone.Don't use a high voltage as it will add static to the background. It's durable & simple. It's sounds nice as long as you're close to it in a very quiet environment.

I love my two mics!
I danced around with xlr mic options for a while before finally purchasing one of these! But honestly, with the all medal body build and the included xlr cable and optional stand, this is a solid option especially for any new and beginner podcasters/content creators who want to save some cash. So I ended up buying 2 for my wife and I to use for our YouTube channel. Great build quality, easy to use and set up. This mic has a built-in pop filter, but you could always use a foam windscreen to help minimize plosives but it's not really needed as with proper mic technique (speaking at an angle) avoids plosives. I strongly recommend the maono pd100 xlr dynamic microphone!

About all I can add are pictures
The media could not be loaded. There's not a great deal more that I can say that hasn't already been said. This mic has a nice, warm sound, good build quality, good noise and feedback rejection, all at a fantastic price. Use a FET preamp such as Fethead or cloud lifter. I was feeling adventurous and disassembled the mic so you can see what's inside.Edit on 9/14/24 I recorded a song with this mic and the tone is good. Sensitivity is good across the dynamic range of my voice when singing. My only issue is the peaks are a little distorted due to overdriving the input into the computer software. I only used a little EQ and added a very short delay and room reverb. My wife and kids were upstairs and not really being quiet but none of that shows up in the recording. The recording chain is as follows: Maona mic > Triton Audio Fethead > Mixer > USB interface > Audacity. I wanted to show what the most basic setup could get you in terms of sound quality If you play the video you can tell that the way the mic picks up my voice is very consistent. There isn't a need for lots of EQ or compression unless there's a specific sound you are trying to get by doing so. Another reviewer mentioned offending frequencies but I didn't really notice any of that. Even the low end is flattering for my voice, which is unusual since I tend to roll off the lows quite a bit with other mics. This means that the male vocal range will do well with this in DJ, podcasting or voice-over work. Overall, I am very happy with this mic.

So not 100% a five star, even though I rated it five...
Ok, so Not a complete 100% because it needs more gain, but overall not a bad mic FWIW. I needed a dynamic mic for simple work (nothing too professional. Internet radio stuff) and the dynamic mic was the best fit. In my studio, I needed to take advantage of how the dynamic mic worked having to be closer to the mic as its less sensitive and needs you to be closer.That said, I already had a Maono AU A04 which is a good USB mic, but picks up too much ambient background. This dynamic mic seems to pickup very well for what I need and is not as sensitive to ambient sounds.I produce content on Youtube where I have a challenge with my shotgun mic (Synco) picking up everything and this one in my test does the trick.I do have to EQ this in a rather surgical way, attentuating some offending frequencies, but I think I dialed it in now. I do have the gain all the way up and still have to boost the gain in the DAW. What a shame. But overall, I can work with it.So... Its got a good, non-boxy sound to it which yes, you still have to do some EQ, but the EQ isn't heinous.Good mic and not if it will stand the test of time... I might review it again.Recommended: Yes. Depending on what you need to do.UPDATE: Do be careful tho. It does seem to have a bit of self noise and mine tends to pickup some EMF. THAT is on my end, not the mic, but the self noise can be mitigated with EQ. Also, its a bit quiet. You'll have to amp it up a bit, which can exacerbate the self noise.

Amazing microphone, very brittle.
This is a very amazing microphone for the price. it is very easy to plug in and use, “Plug and play.” It gets the 3 stars for its functionality and clarity, because if i were judging on those levels then it would be 5 stars. The reason it lost 2 stars is because of the durability. When I got the item, I was able to use it for around… 6 months. This is, until my cheap boom arm (separate item) gave up and dropped the microphone on the floor. At this point, I have never gotten the microphone to work again.
