The Maono to me, sounded less metallic than the Yeti and way more natural than the FiFine. The tone of your voice sounded warmer than the other two. Just my 2 cents. I just ordered the PM421 an hour ago. Great video by the way.

Best Review for me so far and exactly what I was looking for.

Really thanks for making this video , it helped me a lot and perfectly cleared my queries 🥂

I received my Maono PM422 about 2 weeks ago and am very happy with the sound quality. I was using a gaming headset with mic for about 9 months and always seemed to struggle with sound quality. I do wish they had 2 pads but never thought of using the pad you suggested so definitely going to get one. Another issue I had was my main computer desktop is very thick (I think 2") and the clamp would not fit, but luckily I had gotten a side desk and was able to clamp the mic stand to it. Otherwise I would have had to drill a hole to place the arm into...which would have worked as well. As for the differences between the 421 and 422? 422 has a Headset input directly under the gain mic and a metal mic mount that the mic screws down into. Other than a few more $ I am pretty sure it is the same. Great Review 👍

I think the Maono sounds very good for its price.

Thank you so much for the the review! This video is absolutely helpful! Especially for people like me, hesitating all day and can’t make any decision😂😂😂. Thanks 😊

So hard to say but I think maono takes the cake for certain

im actually thinking of replacing my blue yeti with this microphone. Don't get me wrong, I love the Yeti, but the size just has gotten annoying, and i want a nice slim setup, this mic is too chunky. The Maono AU PM421 is the best microphone against the Yeti (to me) and im 100% gonna buy it

Awesome video, just what I needed. Surprised you don't have more exposure.

Gee whiz mate, the Maono was the best, with the Yeti behind it and the Fifine half a kilometre behind both. Thanks for making this.

Hands down the best comparison video of these mics out there. Great review!

Hey just wanted to let you know that Maono has stopped selling the PM421 everywhere and is now selling the PM422, which from the looks of it the only difference is that there is a Headset port. They are now charging 82.99 for the PM422, and it seems like the other budget mics you've reviewed have also gone up in price. I wonder if it is due to Covid but oh well, bully me for trying to buy a mic now of all times.

Thank you i`ve been searching for a good microphone for a long time, definitely getting this one

Maono did sound nice. Blue yeti sounded more neutral. However, I'm surprised people put 100% volume gain in windows. I would rather use 65% for windows and increase the volume gain on the mic. My testing showed that produced better sound. Too bad the maono didn't have more volume at distance. Wish I could have heard that.

I have this much, and I absolutely love this mic. I fell in love with it immediately

I personally like the fifine better I know I will get hate for this but I talk very quietly and I think the fifine will pick more of that up then the maono and at current time it is more expensive and the one I found cheaper than the fifine had their logo on it very big btw that's just my thoughts though it is different for everyone

The Fifine sounds a bit too harsh, while the Maono and Blue Yeti sounds more balanced and has a warmer sound which is pleasant.

fifine has a new mic out called the K678, which also comes with a mute button. as of right now they don't offer a kit with that one but I'm assuming they'll eventually make one just like they did with the previous K669 (standard tripod) / T669 (full arm kit). the thing is that the prices are inflated atm, so it would cost quite a bit more... the new K678 is retailing for about 77$ (standard tripod) and was about 15$ less than that when it came out... so yeah. I'd probably wait for the prices to settle or some sales to come up...

The maono is closer, and crisp. yeti is just what you said, and i'd say kind of muted.

Iam dam sure that the fifine t 683 is one of the best in budget Its a better option as compared to the maono pm 421... The fifine t683 has a volume nob + mute button+ headphones input too...for self monitoring ❤ that's the best in budget Audio quality is amazing and definitely better then the fifine t669....i myself have tested themm all ❤

Please help me ! I’m stuck choosing between this Maono pm421 and the pm401, which one is better in terms of quality? And features? As long as I know the differences are only that the pm421 lacks the 3.5mm jack but has the gain knob and the pm 401 viceversa. Any other thoughts or recommendations? Thank you!

Great video! Really solid points!

maono au a04 vs fifine T669 what you suggest for story narration??

Au-pm421 or the Toner Q9 idk which oneee

Hii I'm gonna buy this mic but I have focusrite amplifier can I connect that to this mic cuz this mic is not a 3pin microphone it is possible to connect this mic to that amplifier plz answer...

I think the fifine is better and for the small difference fro the yeti I don't recommend

maono sounded best to me

can you talk directly into the top of the microphone and still get good vocal clarity?

Their is no way you have 600 subs i thought you had 200k

Blue yeti nano or Maono??

Which one is better in sound quality??? Fifine or maono?? Please can someone tell????

Maono es muy buen microfono por ese precio

Is the Maono AU-PM421 better than the Maono AU-A04?

I think fifine has a little echo and maono and yeti have almost same voice

What the heck dood, wish it was still available

To be honest my main interest in this mic was that it reminds of an AT2020

how the hell do i get a crisp sound like this with the maono. i have a ac unit in the back and i can barley hear it but it still sounds like poop. im a small streamer thats trying this mic out for the first time

Was this sponsored? Just wandering, I also have one and I knows it’s great, just seems fishy. :)

These don't cost anywhere near each other lol

FIF EEEEEN

The maono just had a slightly worse sound than the blue yeti

0:11 Wait, is that how you say it?

damn i bought mine au pm422 for 100$ in my country

Maono sounds way better

They all sounded the same to me

fai fai ne not fii fii ne

fafine? unsubbed.

I think the fifine is best for asmr's 😂
