Watch some Joe Rogan Experience videos and you will see a nice mic setup, with an arm like this and some Shure SM7B's or whatever

This is without question, the best mic boom in its price range

I actually mount the shock mount horizontally on this boom arm, something that I could NEVER even think about doing on the Rode PSA-1 because I would be certain that the mic would come crashing down and slam into the desk and break because of how the bolt constantly loosened and had so many massive problems

It would have just drooped over and probably broken my mic.

you set the mic up well.

I've got my large and heavy Audio Technica BP40 dynamic mic mounted, and the stand required not a single adjustment out of the box; the mic stays in place perfectly, with no arm rise.

This is such a horrible mic arm

This is a good/ok mic boom

I'm a streamer and I purchased this boom arm thinking it would help me make better use of my space, give me great mic placement during streams, and maximize my mobility when streaming

If you want the best mic

All of these reviews are either defective units or this is truly one of the worst mic stands on the market.

I did some hunting around for a good boom mic stand for my Blue/Yeti microphone to help clear off my desk and be able to support either sitting or standing recording.

You don't have to get the most expensive mic stand either

Way nicer than cheap and cheerful mic arms, especially for something as heavy as Yeti

I really wish I could find an attractive mic arm that is adjustable like a pneumatic VESA mount, but I can't seem to find anything like that.

The stand comes with a sticker pointing the screw out, as well as instructions telling you to adjust it to work with the weight of your microphone, yet almost everyone seems to disregard it and complain about the stand not supporting the mic correctly

Don't get me wrong it is an amazing mic

Luckily my mic wasn't damaged

I had a cheap mic arm previously, and felt like I was constantly battling with the exterior springs and the grinding sound it would make when rotating the whole arm away from me when I needed better visibility of my monitor

I’ve used a couple mic boom arms and this one is definitely the best value for money.

I finally decided to try a mic boom arm and chose this one after reviewing and much consideration

The only reason this mic boom breaks - is because those who broke it did everything wrong

So if you have a nice heavy mic, this will be less of a problem

The best mic arm to the moment

I had a cheap mic arm once

So I got this product expecting a solid sturdy mic arm for the price

Takes some time to balance but overall great mic arm.

Perhaps the springs will give a bit with use but for now it’s all I can do to keep the thing from flinging my mic like a catapult (I’m exaggerating to make a point

Well, no matter how much you attempt to tighten them, the mic will raise up

Its not as if I am using some crazy heavy mic on this

it's much better built and doesn't make noise moving the mic around which I do quite often.

I tried out the Yeti Caster, which is a great deal, but ultimately returned it because the mic is too sensitive and picks up too much noise.

We went through cheaper mic arms before we bit the bullet and purchased these, but all of those broke within a few months

I used to use a cheap Newer brand mic arm and the upgrade is worth it

THE BEST mic stand on the market

Does not support the Blue Yeti mic without drooping no matter how much you tighten the arm points.

This is the worst mic arm I've ever used

It's definitely better than every other mic boom in that regard

My mic almost fell on me while I was just sitting there it started to fall

High Quality Versatile Mic Boom

Get a different boom mic stand

Trying to tighten the elbow further ended up with a stripped screw, and now I have a useless mic arm.

I want it in, which is a real stupid way to work a mic

This one looks super professional and functions extremely well with my Shure SM7B mic.

It can support mic's (w/ or w/o shock mounts) that weigh more than the advertised 2.4 lbs

Not a good mic arm for light mics, the tension knobs do basically nothing no matter how tight I tried to get it (without breaking it

I bought this after reviewing several mic boom stands, I'm a big fan of it

First and foremost, it does a great job of holding a mic.

Blue makes an amazing mic and a ridiculously stupid boom arm.

What I mean by that is that if you untighten the clamps, the boom arm will go up instead of down, so you will never have to worry about it falling and damaging your expensive mic

The way this is built means you have to count on the weight of the microphone in order to hang the mic where you'd like it

It links well with the shock mount from blue and, of course, the yeti mic.

Bought this to replace a flimsy mic arm I have been using, and will start with the 1 negative

After mounting the Blue boom arm, my mic is capably supported, spins easily out of the way when not needed, and is in no danger of falling off my desk

So if it's too close to you, like if you have a small desk, the mic will be at your forehead at best
