I don’t want to startle you this one is same as AU-A04.
I know you’re reading this because you are interested in AU-A04 but this review is for AU-A03. I have also researched both models and concluded that both models are exactly same from inside also outside expect the cable interface. Yeah, that’s right. A04 is newer model which uses USB as input where A03 uses 3.5mm. But of course it’s gonna improve its quality, right?
No, actually. The sound quality doesn’t matter on the what interface the mic is using. It’s in the instruments what was used. I’ve checked multiple times. Both mics have same configuration:
A04-
Microphone-core: Dia.16mm Condenser
Polar Pattern: Cardioid
Frequency Response: 30Hz-16kHz
Sampling Rate: 192kHz/24bit
Sensitivity: -38dB+/-3dB (0dB=1V/Pa at 1kHz)
A03- same as A04, believe me! (or research yourself)
So, It won’t make difference even it’s not USB. The sound input will be the same.
Then why the price is double? It’s simple. A04 is latest model and people just overrated it; hence the price rise.
Now which one you should choose?
I’ve been using this mic for some days now. I must say the designers didn’t compromise on anything. The stand kit is full metal, even mic body. Also, the sound quality is really good for a beginner with a condenser mic, but not 10k like quality.
Remember whatever you do there will a constant noise (generated by the components inside, not background noise). So don’t think your mic is broken because I’ve tested that with replacements. I can’t provide you technicals coz I’m not ‘microphone nerd’ but I can say that you will get zero noise when noise reduction is on. If you record your voice and apply noise reduction you will only hear your voice. That’s awesome really because you can’t expect that from a 2k budget condenser mic. Now if you’re a beginner and looking for a cheap but outstanding option A03 is your choice. You can go for A04 if you have extra money, although I can assure you wouldn’t feel anything different.
Delivery was good, I got the package on the 2nd day. The packaging was good and have no complaints. Amazon 10/10

As a video professional, I’ve been looking to set up a small sound recording facility at home for voicing scripts before them being professionally recorded. Over the years when working in other peoples studios I’ve used mics from the mid-range AKG’s to the gold standard U87. A friend who works at a television network who had done some blind testing ahead of fitting out some new studios said I should give one of these a try as in his testing they scored highly. I’m glad I did. Clear crisp audio. Pleasing to the ear and a very good frequency response. Perhaps a bit too crisp but very good quality. Provided shock mount and pop shield as well as cable. You will need more isolation than the supplied mount alone though. And just because a device has lowered price power doesn’t mean it will have enough amps to power this beast. You will get the best results through a professional desk or a dedicated pro-preamp. A cheap low-quality pre-amp will add loads of hiss that this mic doesn’t have on its own. Coupled with a good pre-amp the noise level is very low indeed. Exceptionally low. Excellent value for money. But to get the best results you will need to spend about the same again on a quality pre-amp + you will certainly need to get your acoustic treatment right in your room. A mic is just one part of any setup! And if you are mounting on an angle poise as I have, just add a little square of carpet between the metal of the angle poise and the desk. Stops the mic picking up vibrations.
If you are recording with non-acoustic ambience then also it ll just need 35% noise cancellation and there you go. The base, highs and lows will not effect by doing normalise after that. Puff filter is so awesomely adjustable especially when you are recording acoustics instrument like guitar, mandolin or tabla for instance. It will keep the high, lows and mid at proper dimensions so you can modify in software like ProTools or fruity loops.

I already use this mike to make YouTube videos related to shayari from a long year ago. So I can make a review on this product. Overall nice Mike for beginners to record your voice with clean background. And comfort. Functionality is overall nice during record voice. Wire length of the mike is long so lastly I can say this is a good combination to make video through this mic at the beginners time because at the average price it’s a good product.

I recently purchased the Maono mic and had some initial issues with it.
However, I contacted Maono’s customer care and they were quick to respond and resolve my problem.
Since then, I have been using the mic for a while now and I am thoroughly impressed with its quality.
The sound output is clear and crisp, with minimal background noise.
The build quality is also quite sturdy and the mic feels durable. It is easy to set up and use, making it a great choice for both beginners and professionals.
Overall, I highly recommend the Maono mic for anyone in need of a high-quality microphone for recording or streaming purposes.
It’s a great value for the price and definitely worth considering.
