Great design, fantastic mic.

Fantastic mic! I'm a hobbyist but think about an iPhone, $1500 that's just like one from 5 years ago. To pay for a $400 radio mic is a no brainer. I could use it for 5 years and never have to look for something else.

Great Mic! Shock mount, not so much.

The mic is outstanding! The support arm is actually pretty good, though time will tell if it lasts. The shock mount is a total fail. It doesn't support the mic in the center like it shows on the product page. The bottom metal bars clack together from the slightest vibration - totally defeats the purpose of the shock mount. Since it was free, I'll pad mine with foam and gaff tape.

This mic package is definitely the way to go! After doing so much research, the price was right at Adorama and the rest was seamless. Shipping was super fast, the mic and accessories work great, and most importantly, I feel like a professional podcaster now with this fancy new mic.

I recommend Adorama to all my musician friends

As an audiobook narrator, sound quality is most important. As a business person, quality for the price is paramount. After an extensive search, I found Adorama offered a complete package that included an Electro-Voice RE20 Mic, matching boom and shock mount, which ensured everything fit perfectly. The Mic also came with a nice case. I had reason to talk with their Customer Service and found them to be prompt and most helpful. Given the need - I will use Adorama, again!

About Electro-Voice RE20

- Electro-Voice RE20 Variable-D Dynamic Cardioid Microphone -
The Electro-Voice RE20 Variable-D Dynamic Cardioid Microphone is a professional-quality dynamic cardioid microphone created specially for recording, broadcast and sound-reinforcement applications requiring essentially flat response over a very wide frequency range. The wide frequency response, coupled with excellent transient response, make the RE20 easily comparable to the finest condenser cardioid microphones and an easily operated "bass tilt down" switch corrects spectrum balance for use in long-reach situations or other applications where bass attenuation is needed.

A true cardioid microphone, the RE20 offers greatest rejection at 180deg. off axis - directly to the rear of the microphone. Pattern control is so consistent that the frequency response is nearly independent of angular location of the sound source, creating virtually no off-axis coloration, yet providing greatest possible rejection of unwanted sounds. An integral blast and wind filter covers each acoustic opening on the RE20. In recording sessions or on stage, singers can "close talk" the microphone, singing with their lips almost touching the grille screen with no worry of "P-pops" or excessive sibilance. Part of the filter also shock mounts the internal microphone element, reducing the transfer of vibrations from external sources.

The exceptional performance of the RE20 is achieved by using a large Acoustalloy diaphragm in combination with an exceptionally low-mass aluminum voice coil. Using this diaphragm assembly, the RE20 is capable of reproducing extremely high sound pressure levels with no fear of the overload and distortion often experienced with phantom-powered condensers. The RE20 will also continue to function flawlessly in high humidity and elevated temperatures that would seriously degrade competitive condenser microphones. A massive steel housing and effective hum-bucking coil assure the RE20's resistance to magnetically induced hum and noise. This means the RE20 can be used successfully in situations where other microphones would experience unacceptable levels of hum and buzz.


- H&A Broadcast Arm with Internal Springs and Integrated XLR Cable -
The H&A BROADCAST ARM with XLR Cable Combo is an advanced studio-grade microphone 2 section suspension boom that frees precious deskspace from the clutter of recording environments. The gravity defying arm features an internal spring system with a concealed tension mechanism, engineered to firmly support microphones and recorders up to 5 pounds. The sleek profile and sturdy built-in balance structure gives the impression of professional presentation over an exoskeletal appearance belittling the sound studio importance. The integrated XLR cable completes the world-tour class kit, connecting you to the input without anything less that invisible aural perfection.

Once a mic is attached, no additional counterbalance is needed to gracefully float a mic delicately before the audio artist. The mic can be positioned at any angle with the standard 5/8"-27 mic stud mount thread and a lockable 360 1/2 rotating post. Any mic poise is maintained even when the arm is repositioned. The compact designed base-board c-clamp mounts serves a dual purpose, fastening onto tabletops up to 2.25" thick and allows for rotation secured with a thumb screw lock.

The maximum reach of the assembly is 40 inches and can position a mic as low as 2.5" off the desktop surface. The capsule is always in the right place, without creep, bounce, or the sudden surprise, "where did Mikey go "

The H&A BROADCAST ARM with XLR Cable Combo is suitable for both heavy-duty microphones and light microphones.


- H&A Microphone Suspension Shockmount (Black Matte) -
The H&A Microphone Suspension Shock Mount will give you freedom and flexibility in suspending your professional microphone in any direction you want. It is designed for microphones with a 1.0" maximum mounting surface diameter and features a U-shape swiveling bracket for the shock-mount basket and a rotating 5/8"-27 mounting socket.

To make sure that no mechanical shock and vibration canreach your mic through this mount, the basket is suspended by four elastic bands. For securing the positions and locking the microphone in place, this mount offers locking thumbscrews. The bracket and the basket are made from strong and durable painted matte black steel and should serve you well for yearsto come.
