Made my mind up, I'm going to buy the 800.

[HAWXLEADER]

Got my bm800 mic today. it works perfectly well with my built in audio card without any phantom power!
Audio is completely clean and sounds loud.
My motherboard is an Asus rog z270e.
It sounds amazing!

When recording acoustic guitar with only one mic, position it around the 12th fret instead of in front of the sound hole. Almost any (good) studio condenser mic will sound "boomy" if you position it in front of the soundhole. The fact that the NW-700 doesn't shows it lacks low end. That might be fine for some situations, but in many situations you will want that low end.

I found the mics pretty much identical. Personally I prefer the BM-800, bought one recently and it's an amazing mic. It even beats mic's 7 or 8 times it's price.

I got the NW-800 and I'm happy with it. I will say that speaking into the dead spot back of the polar pattern gives a neat affect since it attenuates the highs. Gives you a deep ominous bassy sound.

While they were pretty much identical in virtually every test, I personally feel like the BM800 picked up the amp better, coming from a person who is getting into self production of music particularly of the hard rock / metal side of the spectrum, I feel like the BM is the better choice. Thanks for a comparison! Ordering one in the next couple days!

This is the best microphone review/comparison I ever watched. No bullshit and straight to the point!

[jacobfalk]

Your singing isn't too bad honestly!

Coming back to a older video like this one is nice. The BM 800 is one of the most famous mics for creators in my country even though there are cheaper ones that sounds better in my opinion. The greatest selling point is that the BM 800 has a nice design compared to other budget friendly mics.

[Breeze]

NW-800 plus phantom power power supply plus foam wind screen plus all the necessary wires: £19.79 or $26.93

[TechVideoStack]

I wasn't aware how important is the microphone for the videos, but I learnt it through the journey! Excited and awaiting my BM-800 to arrive, to see what difference it will make on my videos!

[ThethCircuit]

Thanks a lot for this video. Gonna buy the BM-800 instead of the NW-800 kit because of your video review. I immediately noticed the "boominess" of the bass-end of the sound the BM-800 immediately. Again ty for the in-depth review and God bless!

[ErickMcNerney]

I think they both would be better in certain applications, but overall I think I like the lower end feel of the BM800, and I think that may help avoid some of the hiss and room noise (most noise problems are higher frequency, if I'm not mistaken).

[wpgo]

I'm picking up the BM800 as my starter mic for streaming, videos, and podcasts. Can always get better one later.

i will literally pay you to set up your pop filter.

[nicety]

This was very helpful for me, thank you so much. BTW, I love your vids!

Man, I can't get enough of these videos. Great job. Just subbed.
I'm more into acoustic guitar and liked the low on the BM-800.

[rare_grooves_shack_]

one of the FEW reviewers that bothers to not only do ACTUAL demos, but the goes beyond just voice recordings and does different sources. the only thing i think that could make these demos better is throwing in extreme high & low frequency content like bass and kick drum plus cowbells, but considering just how much everyone else's ALLEGED demos suck, that's just nit picking. judging by the superior +4kHz highs and +7dB sensitivity, i expected the floreon to win & have airier highs, but specs never tell the whole story. thanks for your high quality demos. keep up the good work and MAYBE, down the road, you might do shootouts in stereo so both mics are recording the exact same thing that you can toggle back & forth between.

[davidtraylor]

Wow! Interesting watching one of your videos from 4 years ago. This video was very good but you have improved tremendously in 4 years!
(My comment is intended purely as a compliment)

[cubasbeatproducer]

It truly is insane how good all of these BM and NW microphones are I have two of them and I couldn't imagine needing another mic at all and I'm pretty good at engineering soooo, yeah

[leemendham]

To me the NW-800 sounds thin and tinny, so given the choice I'd go for the BM-800. They were both very poppy as well, and the quality falls off really quickly with distance. For vocals I'd recommend using the BM-800 with a pop filter, no more than 6-8" from your mouth.
