Professional Handheld Moving Coi... vs AKG Pro Audio Lyra Ultra-HD Mult...

The only downside to these mics is that the wires can get soldered on backwards at the factory so if you buy two, they could be out of phase. The pyle mic was better suited for those frequencies and provided a very nice sound for my project. Great mic...  Read More

Are these as good as shure 57s? Bought 2 as a cheaper sm57 alternative. Sounds brighter than an sm57 but very similar still. It sounds good enough that i'd happily sub one for a "real" 57 and not worry it will get dropped or spilled on.

Sure the finish is cheap, but the casing itself feels solid. Bought 2 more right after. Seem to be pretty sturdy too.

Crystal clear highs, beautiful clarity, no boomy-ness. It does a shockingly great job for the price.

This mic is very fragile due to being of poor quality. The sound quality is fair but i don't think it compairs to the shure. When i used them with my mixer, there was too much hissing and cracking.

Soldering and wires are terrible, plus i had the bad luck of receiving one that had solder from one of the wires in contact with the nut the holds the capsule together. The connector on the bottom going to the xlr cable is loose and shakes around.

If you’re a beginner and you don’t know much about microphones, this is a great little setup. Super-easy to use and picks up great vocal tones. High recommend - use for zoom calls and virtual presentations.

An absolutely incredible microphone. Anything touching anything. Me, i just care about whether it delivers the performance i need/expect, and it has.

Akg lyra is a great microphone for a good price. The gain knob is the best part of the mic. The headphone jack is a nice addition to the headphone.

It is really just plug & play, but it also comes with a free copy of ableton lite. It works fine with both mac and windows and is truly plug and play.

Much better than some * webcam mic. If you need a great mic and don't want to have to use a secondary audio converter, the lyra is one of the best.

The mute button is just a fail. It is not plug and play with the iphone. The volume control knob doesn't control the headphone volume. The front audio control is pretty much also unusable.

In precisely the same configurations, neither of those suffers from this problem. It produces sharp metal noise when recording singing or any loud sound. This makes it hard for adjustments. Not usable if actually recording or doing a webinar.

This particular whining sound comes and goes. My guess is that there's circuitry that's waking up upon audio playback or other activities. In all 4 cases the whining sound is present.
