Very informative. I'm glad i watched this.

[@ziyahkeil4808]

watching this vid made me realise that the sm7b that i bought 3 damn years ago for full price is fake, i feel like crying but thanks for the video

[@selw0nk]

I bought one on AliExpress and don't have those differences or issues. I had mine modded with the Trace Audio Anser mod that adds 48v of phantom power. Basically turns into a SM7DB.

Hello, please can you send me a link to the store you got yours from?

[@ThemaPodcastManage]

Hi i got a shure sm7b and there where you can connect the mic to the boom arm the thing that you can screw is shaking and i can see some golden part when i pull it

[@CJMQBingo]

Thank you, I was able to determine that mine is real!

[@tp700]

nice video, its worth noting that there are many different fake sm7b designs and some are closer to the authentic than others... also there are a few different designs of genuine sm7bs around from different generations of manufacture, eg i think there are some real sm7bs with decal all the way round etc. But yeah for the most part these are the best things to look out for 👍:)

[@mikesytes]

Thanks for posting this important information, and yes! You are correct 👍 They are trying to get closer and closer to the real SM7B. Stay tuned, I will have more on this topic!

[@michaelm0524]

@mikesytes so, figured I'd pass this along... I just purchased a SM7B off ebay. Soon after, watched your video and got scared. I was able to register my microphone, so it's authentic. But, my cable is longer than you described, grommet is semi easy to mess with and mine included a red wire. But, it does have the brass back piece, brass spacer in the middle and is sturdy to move. Just thought you'd like some further content.

He says the sm7b doesnt have the sticker running around the inset on the center of the mic but I think the newer ones have that since it has a symbol for WEEE & UKCA recycling on it. I purchased mine 2 days ago fulfilled by amazon and after looking at a bunch of product pics, the older mics dont seem to have it but the sm7db model does, I think they updated the sm7b for compliance and since everything else matched but he said it meant it was fake and I had to look into it. Otherwise the brass colored plate and wiring inside match, the brass inserts on the holding gromets, and everything else he said as far as im aware of lines up with this

Same here. Ordered on the Shure store on Amazon 1 week ago and everything seems fine except the sticker

[@shimmernights]

​@@_Zerth0do your versions have chinese characters above the "made in Mexico" inscription?

[@mikesytes]

I knew you would appreciate that one James! Haha. Thanks!🤣

[@jamesmiscellaneous]

@@mikesytes I like the word play, flippin flappin flounderin flying flamingo, could add more f words but keeping it PG 😀

[@OraGoog]

All the things you complain about with the fake may be more or less true. There are now a lot of different variants. What I miss, however, are sound samples of the different sounds. What a pity.

[@DiGearCh]

I'm not entirely shure about my mic, everything is correct except for the cable length and and the rubber inserts on the cable

[@HeresMo]

I bought one from eBay. Felt wrong, had a ce sticker on one side and the grommets were coming off the cable. The windshield was wrong shape and I could tell it was wrong. PayPal here I come.

[@HisLoveEmpowersMiracles]

Can you do the same video on a fake Shure Mv7 vs real Shure Mv7? I just bought my first mic, a white Mv7 from EBay and I hope it’s real!😭 This was so wonderful!! THANK YOU! May Jesus bless you!✝️🙏🙌

[@mikesytes]

So Awesome! YES!! As soon as I can get my hands on a Real Shure MV7, I will be happy to do a video. Thanks so posting your comment!🙏

[@HisLoveEmpowersMiracles]
