I know that the two have different proposals and especially the prices, but let's say the prices are similar, which of the two do you think is a better choice, Fifine AM8 or A8+? Here in my house there is a little noise but when you close the bedroom door this noise reduces, so would it be worth going for the A8+ or even with the noise reduction filters is the AM8 the best choice?
The AM8 sounds nice and clear on its own, and can handle shouting better. DM30 can sound great with software but, it distorts. If budget is no concern, I prefer the AM8.
@@UdiShoots Out of the box I prefer the A8 sound. With software, I like how the DM30 can sound. They both distort when you get loud. But, the DM30 is 24-bit which means more flexibility in post. So for features I like the DM30, but the A8 was a mic that got me clients so I at least know it's that reliable.
Love your personality. Amazing content. Underrated channel. In-depth but entertaining, and it's everything I need to know before buying the microphone. Thank you.
Hi Dave! Great review,but personally couldn't stand the ASMR part, haha! I have a question. I am looking for a mic to use for streaming, voice chat and overall when I game. Would you recommend this one for that? Thanks!
For gaming, this is great if your space is quiet. If it isn’t, you’re better off getting the Maono DGM20 for noise cancellation! If you want futureproofing for recording voiceovers, go with the Fifine K688 or Am8, but they don’t have noise cancellation. But they reject surrounding noise better than this A8 plus.
Amazing vid! also when it comes to dynamic mic, which is better pd200x or fifinek688? The pd200x had a software and 24bitrate but idk if it sounds good
I also think the PD200x might sound great! 24-bit plus software is a solid consideration. It hasn't arrived yet, but I'll definitely make a video about it!
@@adamgreen4336 I’m afraid I can’t confirm that, as I haven’t used the A9. It appears like a newer version of the A8 plus, but I can’t personally vouch for it as I haven’t tested it.
Hey Dave, great video. I have a question. I have a relatively loud room (the road is next to my room and i can hear every car). Which mic should i go for? AM8 or A8? (I would be using either of them with usb 3.0 as I dont have any xlr device).
I just got my a8 plus yesterday, and I noticed it only registers my voice but is unable to register things like my keyboard, mouse, or my finger snaps. I just wanted to do a short asmr test but sadly idk what to do to fix it.
Hi! The AM8 for clarity, K688 for smoothness, and A8 Plus for clarity and multiple polar patterns. Con with the A8 plus is doesn't have XLR compatibility unlike the other two.
Yes, I like it better than the K658, at least for my voice. The highs on the K658 sound a bit oversharpened. But note that the K658 has better noise rejection and can handle loud speaking a bit better. I wouldn't "upgrade" do this if I had a K658.
I have a fifine T669 and im considering upgrading my mic for work since I work in studio type condo and wanted to minimize the white noise what microphone should I get? Should I consider AM8, K688, or A8 plus?
If it’s white noise you want to minimize, the A8 plus is the way to go. You can get a loud signal without fully turning the gain up, unlike the K688 and AM8. However, it will capture more of your environmental noise due to its sensitivity.
What do you recommend between am8 a9 and tank3 for voiceovers. or you can recommend something more expensive if its better. Thanks
The AT2050 and UMC202HD which is the closest XLR competitor is $300
Awesome video !
great review man
Much appreciated!

If you don’t have dedicated sound treatment/sound proofing, I’d go with the AM8!
Maono DM30 OR Fifine AM8. Which is better?
The AM8 sounds nice and clear on its own, and can handle shouting better. DM30 can sound great with software but, it distorts. If budget is no concern, I prefer the AM8.
@@DaveSoltura Thanks. Would you also pick the Fifine A8 over the Maono DM30?

Wow you're good with the guitar just gotta practice the singing 😂😂
Definitely! 😂

@DaveSoltura Thank you so much for the reply! I will look into these other ones you mentioned and think about which one to get.
Love the jam! THIS IS HOW IT SOUNDS WITH VOCALS! Where's the rest????
what software do you use to record? its so good
Reaper! You can technically use it for free, but a discounted commercial license costs $60 which is good enough for most starting out.

Hi! Can you tell me what is the difference between A8 plus and A9? Because I plan to buy one and cant decide which one to get...

AM8 for sure!
@@DaveSoltura Thanks
Great Video! Loved your style!
K688 or fifine a8 plus
What the better
Am8

Have you tried switching polar patterns? If your keyboard is behind your mic, Figure 8 will do wonders. You could also try omnidirectional.
That´s a real test! Congratulations
That ASMR test had me dying 😂😂😂😂😂
Amazing review 💪🏻❤️🔥
Hi may i ask if we can hear our voice in real time from this mic? There’s a problem where I can’t recorded if i can’t hear my voice while singing
Yes you can!
If i game, can my friends hear my stereo mode live?
Hi! Planning to buy a microphone, what should I get, Fifine A8 Plus or Fifine K688?
K688 for slightly better noise rejection, AM8 for more clarity
great review thank you! One question, is it possible to remove the pop filter from in front of the microphone ?
Just tested it. Yes you can!
@@DaveSoltura so kind ! Thank you so much ☺️
I've watched your reviews. What do you recommend out of all these three mic. K688, A8 Plus, or AM8?
Hi! The AM8 for clarity, K688 for smoothness, and A8 Plus for clarity and multiple polar patterns. Con with the A8 plus is doesn't have XLR compatibility unlike the other two.
Am i better off getting this or an at2020USB+
I don't have a mic yet.
You can’t go wrong with either.
Do you think this mic audio quality better than the K658 and the ampligame a8?
Yes, I like it better than the K658, at least for my voice. The highs on the K658 sound a bit oversharpened. But note that the K658 has better noise rejection and can handle loud speaking a bit better. I wouldn't "upgrade" do this if I had a K658.
I have a love-hate relationship with fifine's long cables 'cause it makes my workspace messy over time 🤣
I feel ya man. 😂
'Promo SM'
Hi I want to get a fifine microphone but I don’t know which one is better the am8 or m8 plus
Same question 😢😢
so basically, a8 plus is a sidegrade from a8.
Pretty much! It’s for features, not a performance improvement
Fifine is great, especially for the $$$$
Absolutely!
So would it been good for gaming
For live streaming
do u have a ASMR channel?
I don't! But I certainly enjoyed playing around with the A8 Plus for ASMR!
NEXT Fifine A9 Bro
UA-camrs never sleep. 😂 We shall see!
