[@SandlyCut]

Great video but the big downside is that you didn't show the audio difference between MV7 and HyperX Quadcast mic. That's for I am here. :)

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Yes, that's fair. Unfortunately I didn't have both in my possession but you can click to the other videos to hear it. Links in the description

[@alexroldan8971]

Thank you for the comparison and great work. Always helpful, well done!

Thanks Alex

Thanks Haldorr

[@joelyyyboi3545]

nice vid helped me alot

[@gabebunn4565]

what is the little piece that you put in the MV7 cuz I have the blue yeti mic stand and I want to order the mv7 just I don't know what that attachment is

[@alstz]

Do XLR connection with audio interface increase the volume of sure mv7. please reply, I am going to buy evo 4 Audio interface only just so I can increase the volume of the mic will it works? Will I get more volume with xlr as compare to USB or they will be same? Please reply I love ur viedos

[@Digiluis]

Hello, very good video. I have 3 questions: in audio quality, which of the two microphones is better? Where did you get the circular light ring? And the blue arm, where did you get it? Thank you!

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Shure MV7 is superior (check the review to hear it kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqbHnmR7irmBj9k). The RIng light is this kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4vNcp-GnaabpcU and that's the Blue Compass. It's on Amazon and other places.

[@AJ-fv9ll]

What mic stand is that at the end for the shure mv7? I don't have much desk room so I don't have space for a boom arm. Do you have any recommendations for a mic stand or if that will affect what mic I should buy?

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

That's from another microphone entirely so wouldn't be an option. Shure apparently recommend this - amzn.to/2HL2fao

[@GamerMS]

hello can you guys tell me which mic i should purchase

[@Pachequiux]

Excelent review 👏

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Glad you liked it

[@Astruko]

So if you were to make a decision between these two streaming microphone, which one would you prefer to use? I know that both of them are very good mics, but I'm asking to see on what's your personal opinion would be, because I have the HyperX QuadCast, and I may want to reconsider on trying out the Shure MV7 in the near future maybe?...

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

The MV7 is a much better quality mic. Less background noise pick up and solid build.

[@Astruko]

@@TheProvokedPrawn Thank you for giving me your honsst opinion! Even though the HyperX QuadCast has a better looking appearance, but for me at the end of the day, I'm all about the quality, and that is exactly what I be wanting to do, and that is to be providing the best quality as much as I possibly can!

[@Brian_Mcc]

Imagine making good content like you, and your not even at 100k, you deserve 100k.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I don't never to imagine 🤣

[@Brian_Mcc]

@@TheProvokedPrawn You do!! You persuaded me to get my first gaming mic and your funny. You help us learn about mics etc., keep up the good work

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Appreciate the kind words. I'm hoping to keep on getting better.

[@bunnie3046]

What mic did you use to record this video?

[@elliotw7894]

hows the quality compared with both mics using only usb? can't afford a xlr but want good quality when talking.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

They're both great. Shure is superior even with just USB

[@YOURGAMINGPROPHET]

so for streaming on twitch game play which would u mostly recommend ive been fighting between both

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I'd go for the Shure. It's much better at blocking out external noise and has a fantastic capture quality. If you're streaming you can then get a GoXLR to control your audio sources in a much more satisfying way

[@YOURGAMINGPROPHET]

@@TheProvokedPrawn thank youi buy one on my next pay

[@brozzmv73]

helo.. what PC cooler do you use?

[@totowolff3229]

Can you also compare the mv7 to the hyper quadcast s, the new one.

[@totowolff3229]

Never mind I should have paid attention in the video.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

I have that mic. Just haven't had time to use it yet.

[@renecoloradollanos7720]

Useful

[@linustechtips4833]

for anyone getting the hyperx it picks up everything and its god dang annoying so if your gonna get the quadcast get some software which you can tweek the settings the hyperx quadcast s has offical software with it but the hyperx quadcast does not

[@argotheinformant]

I have one, would you recommended the MV7 as an upgrade, disregarding money, and all?

[@ImNapoleonLive]

@@argotheinformant the blue bluebird is 50$ extra so if youre gonna upgrade get that but yes if you you have an audio interface if not just keep the quadcast

[@stanvanneerven6921]

HOW DON'T U HAVE MORE SUBS?!?!?!?!?!

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

It's a mystery.

[@benkoskinen3871]

Probably because videos like this aren't very good when it doesn't even compare the audio quality between both mics which is the main point of comparing them

[@Mototoy.]

@@benkoskinen3871 ye you have to test it out. Like on keyboards, they love to hear the sound of the switch instead of just comparing it to the other keyboard

[@nezt94]

play at 0.25x speed for high af voice

[@elnath1978]

I had the HyperX for a year now and can say that the shock mount is just marketing bait. The mike will catch every bit of noise, so is the pattern selector, no matter what, it is always as if it was set to stereo. Wrote to support, they said that if it stay near the keyboard or stop of it, shock mount or not, cardioid or stereo it will pick up everything, and that's normal for them.

[@ryvexP]

It's a condenser mic bro

[@elnath1978]

@@ryvexP yeah, I now know the difference, the video makes even less sense now, since it is comparing it to a dynamic mike.

[@captainsplatt3r334]

Which one sounds better in your opinion when they are both using the USB ports? Edit: great video btw

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

There's already a new version of HyperX Quadcast with RGB. It's called the HyperX Quadcast S.

[@TheProvokedPrawn]

Yup. I have one. Just haven't had time to unbox it yet
