The microphone didn't work with my keyboard (it ended up needing a Dynamic Microphone). And if you get this, make sure you get an adapter so you can easily plug it to an amplifier too.
(I got a better deal at Radio Shack on a better mic, I could've gotten a better stand for the same price too, oh well...) When I finally did try the microphone on an amplifier, the sound was so soft, you can hardly hear it. I'll keep this for the microphone stand, although next time I'd choose a stand that doesn't have these three legs you can trip on.
When I got this microphone, the seller packed it badly. The box was falling apart, tape open, box was beat up, paper work falling out. I'd think twice before buying from a seller who's not Amazon direct.
Rating: - Perfect for casual home use, basic home recording.
I won't go as far as to say that this Nady SP1 Microphone and Stand Package could compete with the higher-end more expensive products for professional use (such as on stage live performances, expensive pro production recordings, and rigorous packing / transit), but for for someone who just wants a good mic for home use with an adjustable boom-stand, you can't beat this package for the price. Perfect for basic home recordings and webcasting / internet DJ's. Excellent bargain, had mine for over 3 months and no problems. The versatility of XLR connectors (with the option to use a 1/4 jack adapter at one end if necessary) seals the deal! Very happy with this package.
Rating: - GREAT MIC! BAD CORD! WORTH IT!
the cord that comes with it is crap, so be prepaired to replace it if u use it alot. it went out on me about 2 weeks after owning it. but maybe i just ha a defected one. either way, u can't beat the price. it is totally worth it just for the mic and the stand. the mic is great for PA use, and other uses. great sound pick up.
Rating: - I own four of them, like them fine
I use these cheap Nady mics for live video recording, usually voice but sometimes music. They do what I need them to do, and I don't freak out about one getting stolen or broken os some idjit knocking over one of the stands -- although so far, the only breakage I've had was a loose XLR connector on one cord, which took about 2 minutes to fix.
A "beyond outstanding" bargain!
One add-on I use all the time = foam windscreens I buy in 3-packs from a local music store for about $6. I hate "puh" voice sounds, and even worse - wind noise. A cheap windscreened mic will almost always give you better outdoor sound than a $100+ Shure without a windscreen.
Another thing - I often use the mic stands as light stands. Why not? They do the job, and with this deal they were essentially free. :)
