Review Text: Best sounding mic at the price point!. Are you looking to move away from your headset microphone and get something that makes you sound crisp and better? This mic is the perfect entry way into the world of standalone microphones. Coming with the dual USB/XLR input really helped me get into the field, understand how they work and use the mic with USB and then supplement with the Wave XLR from Elgato, which took the mic to a whole new level with the XLR interface. The sound of the mic is immediate recognizeable if you have been using a headset mic your whole life. My friends told me even with raw audio sound I sounded like a "YouTuber", so of course they got hit with the ITS YA BOY real quick. The mic itself is sturdy, sounds very well for the price range it is in, has great longevity, comes with everything you need in the box. I will say, if you plan on using this mic, as with almost every standalone mic, invest into a shock mount and a mic arm. Using it on the stand on the desk you are gaming on is not advised. Overall bang for your buck, you will not find a better sounding mic out of the box than the Samson Q2U. I fully recommend this mic for anyone looking to get into the standalone mic field. I also recommend that you swap to XLR as soon as you can because the Gain adjustments on Windows 10 USB devices are janky at best. Hope this helps! I showed my images with a third party mic arm and a shock mount.
