I’m a singing drummer and I’ve been using the k669d live with a shock mount. It’s been really impressive so far and I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on how nice and clear my vocals are in the mix.
Nice comparison video, if you are not aware the K668 is now updated, the mic is further back in the capsule (about 2 inches away from the grate) and the pop filter is much thicker. I have this version and I've seen some other reviewers that say it helps with plosives and the overall sound etc.
Easily the K688 is the best overall sounding mic. Closest to the SM7B. The Anplitank Tank 3 is a great mic, built GREAT.. but has a mechanical sound to it. I sold one and kept one.. just to use as an on the go iPhone pro look mic for streaming and IG etc.. great video bro
Hi brother Thank you for the informative video! I am confused between the Fifine AM8 and the Fifine TANK 3 microphones. I often work in a noisy environment with construction noise or people talking . Could you please let me know which microphone has better noise cancellation in such situations? Your recommendation would really help me make the right choice. Thanks in advance! 😊
The K688 is about the same price as the AM8 right now and I think I still prefer the AM8. Great comparison but I wish you showed the USB sound quality as well. And the question is there a noticeable difference between USB vs XLR on these microphones?
Great Video! I’m stuck on whether to get the - Elgato Wave 3, Podmic USB, Sennheiser Profile, BEACN Mic, or just a Fifine AM8? Budget is sub £250 ($300 ish I guess?) Revamping whole setup, moving from a Razer Blackshark V2, so that includes £60 Elgato LP mic arm and £60 Sennheiser 599 Headset. Will be using them in a noisy room with a tv usually on in the background. This is most important, and had me wondering whether a gaming headset is better, or if independent mics can still do a good job of isolating voice. Many thanks
Have you looked into the Shure MV7? Almost as good as a SM7B but much more affordable. I would definitely get a dedicated dynamic mic for your situation.
"Hi, can you please help me? I have an untreated room but will be recording at night. I plan to record podcast-style content and voice documentaries, using USB mode directly connected to my laptop, with possible voice editing later. Which is better for me, the AM8 or K688? I want clear and comforting sound quality, similar to true crime documentaries."
Great video but none of us know which microphone is producing the most accurate representation of your voice. Not having heard you speak in that room with our own ears, we cannot know if any given microphone is introducing its own coloration or is producing a near perfect recording of your voice. Of course we can say which microphone has the sound quality we like most of all but that is not the same thing.
Thanks for the in-depth comparison review video for the FIFINE Mics! You rock, bro
This is so helpful for a person like me trying to choose a mic with so many options
Which one did you think sounded the best?
@@shotgunstudio5758For me its the Tank 3 Or the Am8 i also think Maono still makes great microphones and they are good in there own ways.

K688 the most microphone that has warming sound I really think it’s the best

That should definitely make it better!
so after the update, k688 or am8?
@@LEYTHLEGACY @Dave Soltura - Voice Actor | made a video review between the new and old one
I absolutely love the AM8. It's the best USB mic you can get for less than 50 bucks. Think I paid 45 for mine.

For better noise rejection, what's better am8 or amplitank 3?

That's totally fine. At least you're not hand-holding a lavalier mic. That one's a criminal offense.
It drives me nuts when people do that.

Can't go wrong with any fifin. I love the k669d, especially for the price. I just released a video of my custom k669d if you want to check it out.
669d is Most Authentic ❤..
Thank you. Great video
Are you amplifying these recordings in post? I found that the recording volume is pretty low even when I max out the gain.
AM8 wins it for me!
Great comparison. Thank You!
Tank 3 sounds the best
669D the Winners 🏆🎉🏆
In my iems sounds better the k688 the other ones sound muted and plain sounding Idk how to describe it but the other ones I didnt like them

I personally like the AM8 better. But everyone’s voice will sound different on any mic.
@shotgunstudio5758 got it thankyou ✨
Please review Soundtech u1
why does am8 sound so bad here, on other reviews it's good. I've watched 6-7 vids on am8
