3 Stars Low Price means Low Quality
I didn’t know much about pop filters except that I needed one. Having never shopped for one before I was unaware of the variety of types and quality. My local brick & mortar shop offered a 6 inch pop filter for $27 and it looked pretty simple. I paid about $16 for this one. The low price made me wonder what I would find in the box. I decided to try two different types of pop filter. After reading many product descriptions in this category I chose this Nady single screen type and a double screen type from Musicians Gear. I received this one first. When I opened the package, the screen mesh part of the filter fell out of its frame. I found that the frame could not be tightened enough to hold the screen mesh securely in place!! Not a good first impression. I made simple shims out of scissor cut pieces of rubber band and was able to reassemble the filter in a way that allowed it to stay together well. I figured for the price I got what I paid for. The gooseneck is substantial and holds the filter in place nicely. The gooseneck can be removed from the mounting clamp which is another cost savings to the manufacturer but can be useful to the user who doesn’t need or want to use the clamp. The clamp is OK and is identical to the clamp on the second filter I bought. I thought the rubber “bumper” on the tip of the screw that secures the clamp to its mounting point was a bit small and too “squishy”. Again, one gets what one pays for. In the end, this pop filter mounted with little trouble, seemed secure and provided the needed service. The screen mesh frame seems fragile to me and can fall apart easily. This is definitely a consumer product meant for a stable, unchanging installation. It is not a “professional” quality product and would not survive one trip outside the studio.
4 Stars Decent Pop Filter
It does what it’s supposed to do. It’s as well made as most, I think. They all look cheap to me, unless you get a studio professional grade. The screen pops out easily, but it will pop back in. It works well for my home recording.
5 Stars Great Item, very versatile for an on the go audio user.
Clamps to just about anything, and is versatile enough to eliminate the pops in audio without taking up a lot of room in your bag.
5 Stars Does what it should
Good price, solid construction, and does what it should. I’m using it over a snowball mic and it clamped right on. Twisted the neck in place and it seems to hold quite well.
4 Stars It works and it’s a good price
I read all the reviews on all the pop filters that amazon sells for about $20. They did not inspire confidence. This particular one seemed less bad than most. There were 3 basic complaints about this pop filter: Weak clamp that bends and warps when any torque is applied, weak goose neck and the actual filter falling out.
1. The clamp – it is perfectly adequate. I don’t know what king of torque people need to apply to it that it is bending, but it’s just holding up a pop filter. It’s not a vise.
2. The gooseneck – very strong and sturdy, move the filter into place and it stays.
3. Filter falling out – this is a problem. The outer loop that holds the filter in place (around an inner loop) is loose and there isn’t any way to tighten it.
Of course the filter performs perfectly also.
This is a solid pop filter, especially for the price. I purchased this to help with my online training video recordings. It works perfectly for its intended use of preventing unnecessary sounds. Gives me much better mic sound. Thanks
