    Great, just as advertised. The only thing is to watch out the distance between the source and the microphone, it can't be to far. #sweepstakes

    Comments about Snowball USB Microphone - Aluminum 988-000068

    Great Microphone just as advertised. The only thing is that there is not a lot of distance allowed to the microphone when you record. Sounds really good if the distance is set right.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

    Comments about Snowball USB Microphone - Gloss Black 988-000069

    Pros: The microphone works well, on the directional setting it doesn't seem to pick up much background noise that occurs to the sides. No issues for me with low volume (some people have complained in online reviews that they can't turn up the volume enough). I use it for phone calls and skype only. I don't remember the exact details, but shipping was very fast. I think 2 days after placing the order the package arrived. Impressed with Buydig and would recommend them. Cons: Other thoughts:

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
