Neewer NW-8 XLR Condenser Mic Review / Test HD

Today I review a $30 microphone, the Neewer NW-8, also known as the "Neewer Studio Broadcasting Recording Condenser Microphone with Shock Mount, Foam Cap and 3.5mm Male to XLR Female Cable, 3.5mm Male to Dual Female Microphone Headphones Splitter, Black(NW-8).” This lacks in the low end and high end, and is mid forward. If you’re just recording demos, I think it’s fine, but for any professional applications, I think you should look elsewhere.
