Review: Incredible microphone, with incredible preformance - I purchased the Zalman several months ago and have been using it consistently. I'll keep it simple with a pro and con list. PROS: -Price: Seriously, $9 for a mic that provides such good sound quality? What's not to like about that... -Setup: I know a lot of microphones are like this, but the plug-n-play is simple and couldn't be easier -Ergonomics: Getting the Zalman set-up on my headphones was easy and fit like a charm. Quality: The sound quality is on par with price. For $9 you WILL NOT find a mic that preforms at this level, plain as that. CONS: -Cable: The cable is very long (not a con for some people), and worst of all it is very thin! I didn't have a problem with either of these, but you have a habit of running over cables with your chair, be warned! OVERALL: If you want a cheap microphone that's preforms decently, buy this. Heck, buy this thing as a backup. For $9, you cannot beat it. NOTE: I have since upgraded to a Antlion ModMic. Similar to the Zalman, but more expensive and with phenomenal sound quality. Costs about $35, check out their website if you want to step up from a "decent" microphone. (modmic.com)
Review: Good mic, dumb design, excellent price - Okay, needed a mic really badly a while ago so I purchased one of these seeing how it was compact, had somewhat decent sound quality, and was cheap. And to be honest, there aren't any other nice computer mics at this price that don't look extremely bad (and aren't headsets). When I opened up the package the first thing that came to mind was how long the cable was. It is LONG. Wayyy too long that I had to tie up a decent portion of it and stuck it somewhere behind the desk. PROS : - Quality is good for chatting. - Small, portable, doesn't look that bad. - Cheap CONS : - Cable is too long, if they wanted to give us such a long cable, at least break it into two segments with an extension. - Cable is extremely thin, would easily snap if you caught it (which I wouldn't be surprised at since its so long.) - Clip is retarded, it isn't even a clip, its a fixed design that means you have to jam your headphone cable into (which I don't really want to). They should have made it operate with a clamp so that you can clip it to other items such as clothes. Furthermore even if you do jam the cable into it, it doesn't really keep it secure. Still falls off from time to time. Could be better : - Not much, redesigned clip, perhaps slightly better sound quality, and better cable system? In all, at this price, I forgive it for its design flaws.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how long is the cable?**
A: My headphones chord is 11 feet long and it is just a little bit shorter, so I think like Ten to Ten and a half feet long.

**Q: Does this noise cancel pretty well? Tired of using PTT on skype cause my mx browns are loud...**
A: Oh this mic is very sensitive. It gets all ambiance noise (fans, dogs barking, etc) My brother uses for gaming and is no good.

**Q: Does this mic have a mute or on/off switch?**
A: Nope.

**Q: How are they with the ATH M50xs?**
A: I was not able to make the zalman ZM Mic1 connection with the headset. My response would be a thumbs down.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality at a great price.
*by P***N on February 9, 2013*

The audio quality is summed up pretty well in the demo. But other than that... ERGONOMICS (4/5) This microphone will NOT clip onto your clothes, like a lavalier. Rather, the clip is something that you simply slide onto another wire. There's also three mini-clips meant for helping it attach to a length of wire and not get tangled, but the mini-clips come off on their own very easily. However, the main clip would never come off unless you deliberately pulled on it. DURABILITY (5/5) This mic a very light piece of plastic-- too light to break or crack should you drop it on the floor. The only way to damage this would probably be accidentally stepping on it. I've had this mic for over a year (since 10/2012), and there hasn't been any issues yet. MISCELLANEOUS This may be a pro or con-- the cord is very long, perhaps 10 feet. It could easily get tangled, and the wire itself is fairly thin. The width is analogous to Apple earbuds (standard issue with iPods). They obviously wouldn't rip with regular wear-and-tear, as long as you show them some semblance of care. OVERALL (4/5) Would I recommend it? Yes, I would. I use this mic for gaming (on Skype with friends and in-game VOIP), and it serves its purpose very well. Obviously, there are better mics out there, but for around ten dollars, this is a pretty good deal. NOTE: All the outside audio came from my computer's speakers. The audio bitrate of the demo was 192kbps. The mic itself was set to 100 loudness and +20 dB boost (from the "Sound" section in the Control Panel).
