" ...  Once I had them dialed in and my input volume was matched I did a vocal take and then did a listen back. ... Believe it or not they sounded identical, at first I thought I was imagining it, then I automated the 2 tracks so I would hear the 990 in the first half of the verse and the NW-800 in the second half, and I literally couldn't tell them apart.  ...  "

" ...  I am very happy with the microphone and the suspension stand.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Very impressed and hard to believe it was this cheap.  ...  "
comment
" ...  This microphone features a build quality I can only describe as metal. ... The metal feels fantastic to hold, and is reassuring for the most part. ... With just the included foam ball cap, plosives aren’t too noticeable.  ...  "
comment
" ...  It looks very nice on its scissor arm stand mounted to my desk.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The grill itself is solid but I don't think it will withstand much abuse and the solid binding pieces of the grill appear to be plastic, I don't believe it could live through a drop or a stick hit without some serious damage.  ...  "
comment
" ...  good quality stand can be a bit wonky at times.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The new top has a larger receiving pattern, and is FLIPPING GOLD!! ... Nice, Sturdy, well-built design. ... The cord on the shock mount snaps easily.  ...  "

" ...  The build quality is better than expected.  ...  "
