FIFINE Boom Arm Mic Stand, Low Profile Microphone Arm Stand, Podcast Mic Boom Arm with Desk Mount, Cable Channels Management, Metal Boom Arm White for Recording/Streaming/Gaming/Home Office-BM88W

=Intro=I have this Boom Arm attached to a Fifine AM8 for casual communication uses as I am upgrading my audio set-up to have a dedicated mic and headphone solution as opposed to a headset/mic combo, as the mic on my current headset is failing.=Aftersales Support=Originally when the arm came, the hand screw piece that clamps the mic down to the arm broke after I tightened it. I then reached out to Fifine Support [Rosie] about the issue, and after a few days, I had a brand new hand-screw part in hand at no cost to replace the old one, which now works and does not suffer from the same issue, so thank you for good after sales support on that.Now, as for the boom arm.=Physical Specs=The arm itself extends to a total length of ~28 inches, not including the length of your mic, which I feel is ample to position your mic roughly ~5 to 6 inches from your face even from a laid-back posture, if you were all the way pushed in to your desk. You can tighten the joints of the arm with included hex wrenches. I have not tested the tightness of the joints after tightening as that's not my use-case.The clamp itself has a very small desk footprint, taking up about 2.5 inches in width, and 2 inches in depth on the desk.The ball joint for adjusting the mic at the end of the boom arm is a bit finicky to adjust at first, as one clamp is responsible for adjusting the mic left and right, and also up and down. Luckily, the aforementioned hand-screw makes tuning this a bit easier. I've got it tightened to a point where I can adjust it with some force while tightened, but the mic still holds in place.=Cons/Feedback=Something that I wish they had added is the ability to drill the boom arm into your desk as opposed to a clamp, similar to a monitor stand. It's hard for me to tighten the arm entirely due to the clamp's position on my desk. This does not seem to be a common concept amongst other boom arms for some reason.Also, instead of a long hand screw to tighten the clamp from the underside, it would be nice if it was a cross-style or T-style hand screw so it would be easier to tighten the clamp in tight spaces [i.e, between desk legs and a drawer which is where my clamp is].I'm not entirely sure if this is due to me over-tightening it, or adjusting it while tightened, but the ball-joint's powder coating seems to be scraping off a little. This doesn't seem to affect the functionality of the mic as a whole, or the overall general appearance, but just something to note.I do feel at times the clamp or the socket (unsure which) where the arm where the arm connects to the clamp is a tiny bit wobbly if I brush it with my arm, but I would say is stable at the end of the day.=Price=I got it on sale at ~40$, however even at MSRP, this is a solid buy as a beginner level boom arm. It holds my mic in place, pushes away easily when I don't want it there. Most other boom arms start at ~70$ from the research I had done from more established audio companies [Shure, Rode, Elgato, etc] for a hanging boom arm, with low-profile options costing more. I definitely feel like that this is a very competitive pricepoint for this boom arm.

By FAR the best mic stand I've ever owned. It feels high quality, it can handle the weight of the mic without bouncing, has very smooth movement functionality and its super low profile design keeps your mic out of the way. My first review for a product ever -- that's how impressed I am with the stand.

This arm was working great till I bumped the microphone part of it and it completely sheared the screw part that the microphone screws onto. It’s unusable now and just seems to be a fault with the threads. I’d like to get a replacement part if possible but their website isn’t the easiest to navigate on how I’d go about getting said part.Edit: The 5/8th threading is still sheared off but I got ahold of support and found out that that smaller back screw under the gold piece still fits my microphone. And on top of that the little 5/8th threading piece can be bought on amazon from other sellers, if this happens to anyone else. I got a 4 pack of them for $8 and they work just fine. Adjusting rating from 2 stars to four because of support helping me but that still doesn’t mean that the 5/8th piece wasn’t good.

An awesome mic arm. Fits my Shure SM7B just fine (mic came with the adapter - the adapter with the arm would not have worked) and was easy to setup and attach to my desk. Nice and sturdy. Love the white in contrast with my purple mic cable. Also love the cable management sliders. Holds the weight of the mic no problem and is easy to adjust

looks amazing with my set up. easy to set up and use, the clamp left weighs like two pounds; super high quality. versatile for any set up really due to the low profile and customizability.

Excellent low profile mic boom for the desk. Sneaks under my monitor just like I had hoped it would. It's sturdy and moves freely. The joints can be tightened with included hex keys. Functional and easy to use. Cables can be routed within the boom arm.

Very sturdy and flexible for microphone use, I use this personally for my Elgato microphone and can say with confidence that this is a good mic holder!

Great quality, but if you plan on moving it around a lot while you're using it, this isn't the one for you. It uses allen keys to tighten the joints. So once you have it set, it needs to stay. Some of the screws wore out pretty quickly on me and it doesn't hold up with the weight of the mic. We use them for a podcast and have 3 of them and only one is wore out that way. Overall they are great quality and if you are a streamer and are always going to have it set on your desk and not be touching it with your hands, this is a great boom arm.
