Samson SR850 Semi-Open Studio Reference Headphones

If you're looking for a quality microphone for a small home studio, podcast, or even just some occasional gaming the Samson Meteor Mic is a solid choice.

• +

  This is a very solid microphone with great style. It should be able to handle your recording needs admirably. Can be used without a pop filter under most normal conditions.

• -

  You may need to reconfigure your speakers in your settings, as Windows can try and see the Meteor Mic's headphone monitor port as your only speaker output.

Whether you want to record vocals or acoustic instruments for music, voice for podcasts, or you just want to sound better for Skype or Face Time, you can’t go wrong with the Meteor Mic.

• +

  Much higher-quality recordings than built-in mic on MBP or iPad, Doesn't require external power source, Small enough to take with you, Works with standard microphone mounts, May be shallow to say, but it's beautiful!

• -

  Short, so you may need to find a way to elevate it or you'll have to hunch over it for voice recordings

One of the iPad’s great strengths is its ability to be used as a recording device – but it’s not just for musicians who use it for instruments and vocals. Among its many other uses are recording podcasts, presentations, interviews and voice memos, and chatting via FaceTime and Skype.

• +

  Inexpensive; amazing audio and build quality for the price

  cheap, kinda comfortable, long thick cable, fairly tough built (and easy to fix), GOOD SOUND BASE FOR EQUALIZATION (CLEAR)

• -

  confort (pleather pads a bit too hard, sweaty maybe), ''BAD'' SOUND SIGNATURE WITHOUT EQUALIZATION

I love these headphones. Just what I was looking for in great sound. The base is perfect, not too much boom boom that my ears will fall off. I'm enjoying my music even better these days. Thank you Sweetwater. Michael P.

I have used different types of Gaming Headphones for years, but always wear them one ear on, one ear off. This is so that I can hear when people that are talking to me. These headphones are GREAT. These are the entry way towards great media.

This is an excellent microphone for people who want an upgrade to the sometimes terrible audio quality of built-in microphones on webcams or laptops. Highly recommended.

i have used this amp for 4years sounds clean the only pomblem is that the level controls get very dirty and nasty static noises thru the speakers have to clean them with tuner spray otherwise a good amp would have given 5 stars if not for that.................
