RODE PSA1 Studio Boom Arm for Broadcast Microphones Best for Twitch & Vlog

The spring extended and hit me in the face when I opened the box for the first time. 10/10 The spring extended and hit me in the face when I opened the box for the first time. 10/10

Similar to the previous reviews, I use a snowball mic. This works perfectly, allowing the cable to route through the provided velcro and some small grooves in the arm itself to allow this. Arm is weighted and designed to stay in the position you want when adjusted. Also allows for pop filter attachment without dragging down the arm.

Pro:
• Decent price.
• Good quality/design.

Con:
• None, gets the job done for me. Similar to the previous reviews, I use a snowball mic.

I've bought progressively more expensive, but decidedly budget options, until now. Each has been an improvement on the last but very quickly had issues that meant I was trying to baby them to make them last as long as possible. They would droop, the threads for the mic weren't quite right the clamp was wimpy everything that could fail in not

This on the other hand is worth every penny. It's rock solid, moves easily and stays whereever you place it. Extremly well made.

Been using this arm with my Blue Snowball for a couple of months now and it's amazing! It's extremely reliable and versatile so I know I won't have to buy another one in the near future.

Just keep in mind that the microphone has to weigh a certain amount, otherwise the spring won't be able to counterbalance the mic. The Blue Snowball itself was too light for the arm so I attached a pop filter and it's perfect. Been using this arm with my Blue Snowball for a couple of months now and it's amazing!

Very helpful, makes any set up look legit as hell Very helpful, makes any set up look legit as hell

I have been using it for about 2 weeks and so far there hasn't been any problems with it. Very sturdy and easy to adjust positions. I have been using it for about 2 weeks and so far there hasn't been any problems with it. Very sturdy and easy to adjust positions.

Got this for my hyperx quadcast mic, and as long as you tighten the end screw (closest to the mic), it will hold in the position you put it in. Got this for my hyperx quadcast mic, and as long as you tighten the end screw (closest to the mic), it will hold in the position you put it in.

Exactly what I was looking for and fits both of the mics I own well! Exactly what I was looking for and fits both of the mics I own well!

Can't say I have any complaints. It was easy to install, does the job and seems nice and sturdy. Can't say I have any complaints. It was easy to install, does the job and seems nice and sturdy.

Excellent my son was so very pleased with this product...we bought a second one for our daughter. Excellent my son was so very pleased with this product...we bought a second one for our daughter.

It is pretty expensive for a mic arm but it is also significantly more sturdy and well designed than cheaper alternatives.

The instructions didn't say to tighten the first screw in order to have it remain in place when using light mics but it was an easy enough fix.

I am much more confident with this microphone arm than the ones I have used previously as this one has a much chunkier base and steel construction. The ones I've used previously were aluminium and the part where it attached to the base snapped off after about 6 months.

The simple addition of velcro cable holders is very nice and helps keep cables out of the way.

By spending more you get a significantly higher quality product and one that should last longer than 6 months. Worth it I would say.
