Rated 5 out of 5

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.

Love this mic

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!

As good or better than the same model microphone I used in 1988. An absolute classic
