What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Audio-Technica AT2020USB Condenser Microphone
  • It's unobtrusive size is easy to handle and will probably be easier to use on a scissor mount arm if you decide to go that route.
  • Everything is made out of some heavy duty metal, from the stand, to the mic casing, to the threaded attachment.
  • It doesn't feel "heavy" but it feels substantial enough.
  • The table stand can be difficult to use, the microphone is kinda heavy so you have to position the table stand just right to make it work.
  • The Stand it comes with is just so terrible the weight of the microphone just tips the microphone because it so, heavy.
Audio-Technica AT2020USB Plus Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone, Black
  • This is a great design, decently priced and the frequency pick up is amazing. Great for vocals. USB plug and play type and it is just great to use.
  • It has a great quality sound and a great range of frequency registration. Not too low, not too high.
  • The plus version of this mic only has the higher frequency range increase.
  • I get a strong, rich sound when I use it to record.
  • The audio is crisp and smooth, and I consider it to be one of the more accurate representations of my voice in recorded form.

Audio-Technica AT2020USB Plus Cardioid Condenser USB Microphone, Black
  • It’s got a low-mass diaphragm that is custom-engineered for an extended frequency response.
  • This microphone draws out the deep rich frequencies in my voice and gives me a very professional sound.

  • This is a great design, decently priced and the frequency pick up is amazing. Great for vocals. USB plug and play type and it is just great to use.
  • The sound is of the highest quality. I've only had it for a few days but I've done a few harmonica recordings and dubbed them into a few studio tracks...you can't tell the difference from the sound quality. Whatever you need to record, this mic can handle it.
