Customer Review: Far above what I would have expected for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
This microphone turned out to be a very good purchase. My uses for it are for gaming and voice dictation. What I like about it is that it's sensitivity can be very wide. When gaming, I can speak into the microphone without having too much sound from my speakers being caught up, yet I can set it so that it can pick up voice commands while I'm on the other side of a 20' room. I made good use of that the other night when I was trying to hook up some speakers (which I didn't mark which cables went to which speaker) so I told the computer to click on the test button (Vista voice command) to run the test so I could get the right speakers in the right places. Plus the comfort of not having to use a headset when gaming is great.
The unit is also surprisingly stable. The base is weighted enough to keep the cord for turning or pulling the base stand around. It also has a rubber surface on the bottom to help prevent it from being slid around. The angle of the microphone is adjustable easily enough and so far hasn't loosened any. The microphone can be angled down to the point where it is flat and picks up from in front of it, as if it was sitting on top of something above you, like the top of a shelf or monitor. The mute button is handy, though I haven't made much use of it since the majority of the applications I use have built in mutes or require a button toggle to begin voice.
I have used other microhpones. I was previously using a Plantronics GAMECOM 1 PC HEADSET ( 67003-01 ), and it works great, but when sitting at home, I prefer the comfort of not having something on my head (also makes eating a lot easier without having a microphone in the way.
