Audio Technica ATR1100 & Hamilton kb810m *TECH TUESDAYS*





On today's episode of Tech Tuesdays, we unbox the Audio Technica ATR110 microphone, and the Hamilton Stands kb810m Desktop Mic Stand. 

Let's first talk about the microphone itself. Actually, I got a defective mic, and promptly returned it. Perks to you, Amazon easy returns. So...yeah.

That leaves us with the only functional product (splitter does not count), the mic stand. I paid $8 US for it, so I wasn't expecting much. Boy, was I wrong. This mic stand is one of the greatest Amazon purchases ever. First, it's made out of metal, so it is very sturdy compared to some of it's hard-plastic alternatives. Believe me. You don't want a plastic mic stand. Still don't believe me? Then you are tough to please, because I'm right and you're not. 

The second and final major plus is the adjusable holder-thingy. It is very well designed, and is made ou of some sort of synthetic rubber/plastic material, and is cut through at the top. This allows for easy resizing for whatever microphone you need.

Final revews:

Radioshack Splitter: 9/10. Definately works to it's full potential, but is too expensive
Audio Technica ATR1100 microphone: 1/10. Try to up your QC procedures. 
Hamilton Stands kb810m Mic Stand: 10/10. Just read the post.
