Podcastage | Shure MV7x Podcast Mic Review / Test (vs. SM7b, RE20, Q2u, SM58, and More) @Podcastage | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
Today I review the new podcast mic from Shure, the MV7x. This is the XLR only version of the MV7, and before you scoff at it, the XLR output sounds 10x better than the XLR output on the original MV7.
