Reviewed in Mexico on May 25, 2021
Machen wir uns nichts vor, natürlich ist Klangmäßig immer mehr rauszuholen, wie auch immer bei dieser Art Produkt eine nächsthöhere Preisklasse besteht. Für den Preis im Bereich 100 Euro, ist für mich die Klangqualität aber vollkommen zufriedenstellend und mehr zu erwarten wäre schon irgendwie absurd.
Auf mich als Laien macht das Mikrofon bisher den Eindruck für normales Sprechen mit Freunden via Discord oder Sykpe, in-Game, sowie für das erstellen von Sprachaufnahmen absolut geeignet zu sein.
Für Instrumentaufnahmen halt eher weniger, da kommt der Sound nicht so richtig zur Geltung. Und auch für professionelles Live-Streaming oder Gesang sollte man sicherlich ein höherklassiges Modell kaufen.
Dennoch, für die normalen Zocker und gelegenheits Streamer, als auch für Hobby Synchros oder Aufzeichnen von Sprache für Projekte, sollte das hier absolut geeignet sein und wirkt wertig, robust und vertrauenserweckend.
