FIFINE Wired Microphone with Cord 14.8ft,Handheld Dynamic Mic Karaoke Microphone for Singing Vocal with On and Off Switch-K6

I finally had to replace the cheapo plastic mic that came with my portable PA system, and this one seems like a good replacement. It's a surprisingly good microphone for the price.I plug this in to my portable PA system/active speakers for occasional announcements/speeches at events etc.This mic has a lot more gain/sensitivity than my old mic. For my use which is mostly outdoor and plugged directly into one of the powered speakers, it's okay as long as you turn the input volume down a little and don't get too close to the speakers.For indoor or performance use, I would recommend connecting this mic via a mixer for better control of the gain and levels to suit a particular room and setup. (I use a Yamaha MG06X, which is a solid little portable mixer.)Pros:- Great for the price.- Good build quality, strong metal construction.- Easy to use (Just simple and solid on/off switch)- Great for open/outdoor use.- Comes with a decent quality, long (~5m/16ft) XLR -> 1/4" jack lead. This lead is easy to swap if you need a longer/shorter lead, need a different (e.g. XLR or 3.5mm jack), or it breaks.Considerations:- It comes well packed in a box with foam. If you will be using this frequently, a decent carry case or bag and velcro strap for the lead will help keep it in good condition.- I would recommend to disconnect the lead before packing away the mic, because the XLR connector/cable will get damaged in transit if it's constantly being bent against the microphone when packed. (Don't ask how I know this!)- Slightly tapered design and perhaps a little chunky. Mic holders vary but can be too small. You might need to get a wider mic holder if you need it to slip in/out easily e.g. if you want to use the mic on and off the stand during the show without an awkward struggle every time.- It works no problem connected directly to your amp. But the speaker/singer needs to hold it at just the right distance from their mouth to avoid too much gain in some amplifiers. The gain control/levels may not be sufficient to get the best out of this mic without using a mixer.

The quality is good, the output sound is good as well. Its body is made of metal which doesn't like a toy and should be used for a long time.

good microphone works well and have not had any problems with feedback it is light and feels ok in the hand would buy again .

Cracking mic for the price can’t tell difference from my more expensive ones

Grear product for my karaoke machine. Produces great sound.
