A very good mic
As Rick says, this is the best under $200 mic going.It is crisp and clear and warm and clean.I like it on acoustic guitar, and placement is not critical.I like it on my voice and it seems to have less quirks than the Oktava 319 and MXL 990, both of which I have.It is very hefty and solid and tracks recorded with it stand out. Vocal prescence is excellent.I am quite happy with this mic.Deal-wise, I was fortunate enough to get a B-stock lightly handled show mic. It came with a cable and case and cost ME less than $60 delivered.Extremely hard to beat at that price. It even came with a cable.This mic is a very good deal at the 99 bones it is advertised at currently.You could easily spend more and get less.

Great mic for the price
Purchased this mic as I had an Amazon gift card. Great deal for the price. Works well on vocals and acoustic guitar. Has a bit of high end to it that you can eq out to give it some balance, especially on vocals. But a great mic for someone who is starting home recording and is on a budget. But like most recording/sound gear you can always upgrade when your skills and ears require something more quality wise

Reid Brown aka V.I.P.E.R. and the M-Audio Nova
M-Audio is the future of recording. I have 7 other M-Audio products and I love every one the same. This is the product that I will use to record my self titled album (V.I.P.E.R. The Hate That Motivates). This microphone is crisp and clear. No need for a pop guard with this propely priced condenser. I love this mic. Like Nas said " All I need is one Mic". To all the aspiring artist out there. Follow your Dreams and get this mic. Reid O Brown DJ V.i.P. V.I.P.E.R. 9325) 261-2191

Best in class by a mile.
This is a very good microphone to make music. It has a 'large cardioid' which is very good for picking up vocal and instrumental sounds. I play the violin and guitar. So it is essential that mic placement doesn't effect the tonal quality too much. It costs $100 but sounds well like one worth twice its price. This microphone does require to be powered, so you need to have phantom power capabilities in your preamp/audio interface. If you wish to consider a computer/laptop as your direct end point and not a mixer, then please invest in a good preamp. Latency is a HUGE issue in most pre-amps. If you just wish to record speech, latency shouldn't be a problem at all. I use the Yamaha Audiogram 3 and would highly recommend it. It is beyond better than most of the preamps on Amazon which are of poor quality.I hate the cheap plasticy feels of most products. This mic has a very solid metalic feel to it. I found a used for a great deal and it still works like a charm. Mine came with a soft case. So if your's doesn't I would recommend one. I would surely recommend a pop filter if you wish to record singing or speech. It makes a huge difference and isn't very expensive. This mic is very under-rated. It should well be the best selling non-usb condenser mic.Sound Quality : 4.5/5Durability: 4.5/5Value: 5/5Overall: 5/5

Great for amateurs
Great mic, really. Obviously not quite going to hold up to the big brands, but the sound is absolutely acceptable and useable in a recording environment, I myself recorded and produced an EP using almost exclusively this mic. Durable, too. As embarrassing as it is to say this, I dropped it twice, and it was totally fine.If you're looking for a pro sound on a very low budget, this is your mic.

Rock Solid.. I have 2!!
Great mic for Podcasting. I put it on a nice desk stand and hook it into the Maudio USB Preamp. It does require phantom power and has XLR connectors.. so it won't plug directly into your powerbook.

The delivery time was excellent, and the packaging was secure.
Using manufacturing breakthroughs pioneered by M-Audio's popular Luna and Solaris, the new Nova cardioid redefines the entry-level price point for quality studio condenser microphones. The 1.1\" evaporated gold diaphragm mounted in a solid brass capsule ensures recordings that are faithful to the source, and the Class A solid state electronics are engineered for low noise, distortion and coloration. You'll be amazed at how much microphone Nova gives you for the money.
