maono pd200w wireless dynamic microphone review ProsCons...
The Maono PD200W is a versatile dynamic microphone well-suited for streamers, podcasters, and vocal artists getting started in their lines of work. The main draw is its 2.4 GHz wireless module, which allows the mic to connect to any compatible USB-C device (including smartphones) without worrying about running wires across a workspace. Recording quality is fairly good in all modes and competes with most other USB microphones in this price range. One of the big drawbacks is the lack of pattern selection; the PD200W is stuck in a cardioid pattern. While this is fine for individual recording, it limits what the PD200W can be used for. Overall, the microphone is a solid "bang for the buck" option for those getting started in solo vocal work.
