[EarthworksAudio]

Great work! Your violin sounded so good with the ICON, it felt like I was in the room with you.

[iranewton]

Both mics sounded great
Both look great
The Shure Mic will easily adapt to a standard mic stand . Wanted to see it or both hooked up to the computer and Phone .

[Lucerious]

I’m really surprised by the quality of these USB mics. Good sound quality with ease of use helps them stand out.
As for which mic, I think I lean more towards the Earthworks? It sounded brighter to me which is nice for something like the E Major Partita. Like you said it’s a close call since they’re both really good. Which do you find yourself leaning towards?

[ErenCaner]

Does it make sense to buy micro usb connected microphone such as Mv51 in 2023?

[cajamanual]

Have you tried the XLR version of the Icon Pro?, if yes which one sounds better for you?

[MeanKoreaNZGamer]

Would you have any chance to plug MV51 to PS5?
I really like this mic and I know that PS5 is compatible with many usb mics but I want to know this mic work with PS5 or not before I buy this mic

[cajamanual]

IS there any app to modulate the Icon USB in real time like the Rode app for example?

[robinbrown]

Talking earthworks sounds better but the sure would be great if you turned it up.music on both. Is fine
