V-Moda BoomPro Microphone | For Gaming & Communication | Wired - 3.5 mm Jack | Flexible Boom | Clip-on Controller With Mute Button & Volume Wheel | Black

Initially I looked into purchasing this for my V-Moda Crossfade LP (original, not 2) as I prefer the idea of a boom mic, rather than in-line mic for playing games and using voice chat through Steam. I was rather surprised to find that this will not work with only V-Moda products but any headphones that have a standard 3.5mm jack (there might be exceptions, but I don't know), as the mic aspect is only in the cable. That's excellent news for future purchases of headphones and my recommendations of headsets for other people. Mic quality has been reported to me as being exceptionally clear. It's a mic so don't expect to sound like you're in the same room as another player and, obviously, it will depend on the quality of their headset as well but the first description was that I sounded like I was talking on a phone with good clarity. It's a mic - there are variables galore but positive feedback all round. The cable itself is pretty decent. The cable has a standard 3.5mm jack that works with Apple products, 3DS systems and the like. There's a separate adapter for plugging into the PC. I'm not sure about the in-line controls but I'm going to leave it out of pros vs cons because I can't make up my mind; there's nothing that I can put my finger on that is "bad", let's put it that way. The boom mic, astoundingly, feels solid and flimsy at the same time. It's extremely easy to bend the mic (cable? Pole? I don't know the term) but at the same time it doesn't feel like it's going to break any time soon. I can only assume that it's that well-made. If I had one niggle about the cable it's the inability to vary the length; it's too long for where I have it plugged in and I can see that other people would have a similar issue if they plug this into the front of their PC, for example. I can't call it a negative per se, however, as it's a cable length. Some people may need it to be longer. One negative I do have is that the PC adapter could have had a clearer way to illustrate which is the mic and which is audio. There is a symbol on the side of the jacks with headphones on one and an arrow on the other but I would have preferred coloured bands (do they have a term?) on the jacks, rather than them both being black. Not much else can be said, really. It's a cable that works with the headphones and the mic is clear.

A fantastic microphone for the money. Add it to a good pair of headphones like the Phillips SHP-9500 and you'll have a much better headset than most £200 headsets on sale. The mic is extremely clear. Not too trebbly, and has good lowend and depth to it. The only downside is it can pickup more background noise than I'd have wished for. It also doesn't come with a boom pop filter. The mute switch and volume slider is nice and works well. The cable is great quality, a braided black cable which is fairly thin and unobtrusive. Don't let that put you off, it feels that it will last the test of time. I had to use the provided splitter for it to work on my PC so be cautious. It wouldn't work on the my PC IO with the single 3.5mm jack. I put the splitter into 1 mic input and 1 audio input on my internal soundcard to work. Sound quality to the headphones is completely unaffected which is a huge plus. All in all a great and clever little device

The quality on the microphone is superb - on par or greater to many headsets I've tried. There is more bass to this microphone than others, but it isn't necessarily a bad thing; recordings are super clear. There was originally some static, however this was resolved by disabling the AMD HDMI Audio drivers. Not all issues are hardware! You will need a pair of headphones with a 3.5mm port, myself using the V-MODA M100 Crossfades however they will work with other brands too. I highly recommend this solution over the popular Mod Mic - less cables, higher quality. All I simply do is plug the top into my headphones, then plug the 4-pin jack into the included splitter (for computer use, phones and tablets would support a all in one 4-pin) to plug in the headphone and microphone ports of my computer. Originally having the microphone to the side was a tad bit annoying while not-gaming. You can turn the microphone around to not be in your vision, or simply switch out the cable, else you'll get used to it quickly and forget it's there. The arm holding the microphone stays in place and doesn't feel flimsy. Having the microphone itself detachable would make this product absolutely perfect. The reason for 4 stars is that unlike other V-MODA products, the materials used aren't super-high quality, although they do the job. If you've owned a pair of V-MODA headphones, you know the quality of the cables. While this is decent, it isn't as good. Likewise the box with volume control/mute works but feels lower-cost than the rest of the product. I don't fear this breaking, only that it could be made from a nicer material. However, this is acceptable as it keeps the cost of the high-quality microphone down, although it wouldn't break the bank.

Compatible with everything and connect with one jack 3.5mm

Microfone de ótima qualidade, ele não capta qualquer mero ruído e a voz fica muito limpa. Na minha opinião, muito melhor e mais prático que um microfone "de mesa". Uso num SHP9500 com um dongle P3 para USB-C e funciona perfeitamente. Veio bem embalado e chegou antes do esperado.

Apres avoir utilisé le Corsair HS50 PRO pendant 1 an (casque qui a un microphone plutôt bon par rapport à ce qu'on trouve sur les casques "gaming" en general) je peux confirmer que le V-MODA est nettement meilleur! Oui, le cable est assez fin et le micro doit être repositionné fréquemment (pratiquement à chaque fois qu'on met le casque sur a tête) mais la qualité du son est tellement bonne qu'on peut lui accepter tous les petits inconvénients das l'utilisation quotidienne. Dans mon cas je l'utilise le micro avec un AKG N60, donc j'ai eu besoin d'un adaptateur jack 3.5mm vers 2.5mm pour pouvoir brancher le V-MODA. J'ai acheté au hasard, le "Vention Lot de 2 adaptateurs Audio 3,5 mm Femelle vers 2,5 mm mâle de qualité supérieure pour Casque d'écouteurs, écouteurs 2,5 mm vers 3,5 mm Jack stéréo ou Mono" et le "Lindy Adaptateur Audio stéréo 2,5mm M / 3,5mm F". Tous les adaptateurs fonctionnent parfaitement, ils restent bien en place dans le casque et passent bien le son stereo par le cable du micro V-MODA. Vu la qualité du son et le prix, je recommande sans reserves ce micro qui peut être branché sur un caque avec port jack de très bonne qualité et obtenir un headset exceptionnel et modulable !

Great product. My new Sony 1000XM4 microphones sucked. Wanted a good microphone for conf calls and casual gaming. This one fits right in..the sound quality is exceptional. Goes well with my XM4

Nunca me han gustado los headsets, para "gamers", son caros y la calidad de audio y micrófono no es la mejor, ademas que si dejan de funcionar es complicado repararlos, la mejor solución que encontré es este micrófono de V-moda, simplemente hay que conectarlo a la entrada auxiliar de tus audífonos y listo, funcionan para jugar en consola (personalmente lo he probado en la entrada auxiliar del dualshock 4) y también viene incluido un splitter para usarlos en pc, de igual forma pueden ser conectados a un celular(probado con android), para realizar llamadas VENTAJAS >muy buena calidad, el cable es de alta resistencia, y la manufactura y materiales son de alta calidad > el micrófono es ajustable, se puede acercar o alejar > cuenta con control de volumen en el cable , y un botón de silencio, indispensable para partidas en linea >siempre y cuando tus audífonos cuenten con entrada auxiliar podrás usarlo >compatible con las consolas de generación actual y pc >buena calidad de grabación, me podía escuchar sin problemas de forma clara DESVENTAJAS >la parte mas delicada es el micrófono , a veces se siente frágil, sin embargo no ha tenido fallas >es necesario contar con audífonos con entrada auxiliar para usarlo, lo cual representa un gasto extra si no cuentas con este tipo de audífonos.
