This is the same mic that is included with Shure 100WD microphone sytem. The only additional item in the 100WD is a desktop stand. So if you don't care for a desktop stand, go for the cheaper 8900.

I bought the 00WD for Karaoke and vocals, and was much disappointed by the extreme sensitivity of the mic handle and wires. If your fingers moved even a bit (without tapping too and far away from the mouth piece), the noise would be heard. Definitely poor quality mic if you want to hold it in your hand and sing. Much disappointed.

If you want to leave it on a stand, you could consider it as long as the wire is not touched at all.

I returned my piece back to Amazon, and am back in the market looking for a better value for money.

I bought the mic in the hope to record quality sound on my computer. However, I have to turn the volume and the level of mic both to the maximum in order to produce a decent loudness on my speaker system.

My sound card is SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook. I used my computer's built-in sound card to test it, too, and the result is the same: the output from the mic is too weak.

I am impressed by the sound quality, much better than those found in Walmart.
