I've had a bad experience with traditional spring mounted booms over time. So, for a long time using one has left a bad taste in my mouth. I'll keep my impressions brief:Pros:* Great Cable Management, cannot even see the cable* Great length* Extension arm provides a great amount of flexibility for different kinds of mics* Very stable* Can fit just about any kind of desktop provided you have a large enough lip* Metal constuction (aluminum?)* Well packaged for shippingCons:* Cable management setup is a pain, but it's a one time thing.* It's large and doesn't easily collapse away when not in use* $$$ Expensive at $91! Fortunately I got a "Used (Like New)" one for about $60. At this price point I feel it was a good value.* Joints are plastic, and possibly a point of failure* When not tightened, my AKG mic was too heavy for the spring, and it slowly falls - But not an issue if you tighen it. Could be a downside depending on the weight of your mic.

I have a need to mount a Shure SM7B to my studio desk and a Shure MV7 to my home office desk for various professional meeting, podcast, webinar, and video content creation reasons (much more LinkedIn than TikTok in focus). So I figured I'd go with a Shure boom mount for my Shure mics and that turned out to be a mistake. I'm not sure if the one I have is defective or if this is just how poorly it's made, but as soon as I add either mic to the end of the boom, it sags at the base joint. I've tightened it so much I'm having trouble untightening it and it STILL sags downward immediately. I also find it strange that there is no tension adjustment on the base stopping it from swinging around. The boom mount is also shockingly lightweight for the price and is made predominantly of plastic.I figured a Gator Cases product being branded by Shure would be worth the price, but this is most definitely not. I have a 12-year-old $30 boom in my studio holding the SM7B currently that is a better product than this one. It will slowly sag over time under the weight of that mic, but it takes weeks. This one can't even stand up for 2 seconds. Absolute junk. Avoid.

I got this for my Sure SM7 mic for doing desktop audio recording. I don't have a lot of space for swing arms because my desk is tucked into a small home office corner. This connected to my desk easily, it came with an adapter so that I could connect my MVX2U interface plug (a thoughtful addition). Setup was easy and straight-forward. I love how the mic boom now just swings out of the way when I'm not using it. Great quality and heavy, sturdy boom that is just as quality as the rest of what Shure makes. Do make sure you have at least a 6-food shielded USB-C cable.

This is a review for Shure by Gator Deluxe Articulating Desktop Podcasting Mic Boom Arm with Cable Management Channel; (SH-BROADCAST1).The boom arm is very sturdy and relatively smooth. It does make a tiny bit of noise when spinning. It’s metal construction and feels premium. The tension rods, which control how easy it is to adjust, are easy to both loosen and tighten. There is a tension mount that is large enough to fit most desks and is relatively easy to tighten.I am not a fan of the fact that there’s an extra piece to fit the SM7B microphone. This arm is built for Shure - it should fit their microphones. The reason for the extra piece is so that your XLR cable can be plugged in. Otherwise, it hits one of the adjustable caps. The extra piece looks long and silly in my opinion. The Shure lettering also is a bit tacky for such a premium mount. The XLR cable channel is nice but a bit of a pain to manage. I had to squeeze the cable fasteners tight enough to pull them out, then use two fingers to open the fastener to get my cable through it. It was ultimately a 5+ minute job. That’s too long for a 4ft cable run, but at least it works.Overall, I’m happy with the sturdiness of the product and ease of adjustability. Setting it up was easy besides routing the cable, which you shouldn’t have to do often. My main concern is appearance. The bold Shure logo and long piece to fit the SM7B doesn’t look very good in my opinion.

My first experience with Gator Arms was not great. It fell apart. Diffrent Gator ARM. This one however works great, have owned it now for a few years and still works and looks like it is new out of the box and has not lost any mic sturdyness over time. I can still set the mic where I want and it doesn't fall due to wear and tear. If I ever get a second mic, I would 100% get this arm again. Also, the cable routing will take one XLR cable and one USB cable in the same clip. also, both fit in the cable routing hole. Sure MV7 XLR USB mic.

Despite marketing making it seem like this arm was designed for the SM7b my arm from the beginning was a little to weak to hold up the SM7B. The articulation is nice as long as you do not need to reach very far out from 90 Degree vertical. If I want to sit even a little back from my desk the mic will start to sink down and need constant re adjustment. It is quite frustrating for the price and If I didn't need this arm right now I would have returned it and tried another. If your use case for this arm and the SM7B needs the arm to reach out from desk point the SM7B makes it a little too top heavy and it can't quite hold position.

Ik heb de shure arm besteld om te gebruiken met mijn SM7B ik heb de B keus genomen dat scheelt wat geld en de artikelen zijn "vaak al" prima. Nu miste het "extenderstuk" en dus was de arm onbruikbaar voor mijn mic !! Ik kon de arm terugsturen en een nieuwe bestellen maar daar gaan ook weer dagen overheen en veel rompslomp. De verkoper mailen en vragen hoe dit op te lossen was niet mogelijk. Uiteindelijk bij thomann een extender besteld en nu is het ok wel slordig en een beetje sneu!

Sehr guter Gelenk-Mikrofonarm. Bevor ich den Shure Gelenkarm hatte, hatte ich mir für weniger Geld einen bestellt. Dieser quitschte und nach einiger Zeit, war dieser nicht mehr so stabil, dass dieser das Mikrofon hielt. Bei den Shure Mikrofonarm war das anders. Seit einen Jahr in Gebrauch und das täglich und keine Veränderung. Da ist es mir Wert, mehr dafür auszugeben.

It is incapable of holding a Shure microphone upright. It is very badly mad and just not very strong at all. I have to have to have it held up by using string.I wouldnt bother buying this and find one capable of holding a microphone.
