    The mic is perfect.
    High-quality, clear, and full sound. I use it for video calls, video presentations, and video recordings.
    I don't have any audio issues, but I create videos and make video calls daily.
    The quality has improved significantly, and there are no complaints about communication problems.
    The only thing it lacks is a button to mute, which would be helpful in cases when you want to immediately mute the mic.

    High-quality construction and excellent sound without distortion and noise! The vocals and guitar sound exceptional at the appropriate distance. It connects directly to the computer and headphones without any problems! I would have liked it to have an on-off button so I can turn it off when I'm not using it, but it doesn't have one. So the blue light is permanently on when it is connected to the computer.

    In the future, I will also buy another stand because the tripod it comes with is indeed of good quality but not very convenient for me.

    As a USB microphone, it does not use the computer's motherboard/card it is connected to, but essentially becomes an external "sound card" for the computer. So, if someone has invested in a good sound card or a good graphics card or a motherboard with very good sound quality, obviously they will not be able to use this microphone simultaneously as an input and the other card/motherboard as an output to pass through the Display Port/HDMI and from there to the screen, but the output will come from the jack port of the microphone itself. This has the advantage that there will be no microphone interference so that the sound output is recorded on the microphone as an input, so it didn't bother me.

    In general, I am satisfied with the sound quality it covers and exceeds my needs, as well as its construction. It is easy to install on Windows and to use.

    Maybe the best purchase I have made so far as a product. I have had it for about 3.5 years. As soon as you hold it in your hand, you immediately understand the sturdiness and quality of the construction. In terms of sound, it is also excellent. I had bought it for 150€, maybe if it was around 100-120€ it would be more value for money, but still an exceptional microphone from a reputable company in the field.

    I wanted to get a plug n play microphone for (mostly) amateur home recordings of musical instruments. From reviews, I saw that the cheapest ones worth going for are this one and the blue yeti, but the blue yeti is preferred for voice (podcast, streaming) because of the color it gives to the sound and its appearance. From comparisons, I saw that the at2020usb has a cleaner, colorless sound that makes it more suitable for music, so I preferred it and it proved to be true. It worked exceptionally well for musical instruments (even better than I expected) and obviously it was amazing for vocals, especially for singing, it was just an honest recording and not the "radio voice" that some people want for streaming. The only maybe negative thing about it is the small tripod, but that was rarely a problem for me.

    Pros:
    plug n play without needing any other device,
    comes with all the necessary accessories (no need to buy anything else),
    amazing build quality,
    monitoring and controls on the microphone itself!,
    great sensitivity to capture sounds,
    very good sound for budget guitar recording

    Cons:
    the tripod is quite low and not very convenient, but I would have gone for a different stand solution anyway. I would consider the included tripod as a temporary or super mobile solution.
