Mic + stand is 23 bucks

And that used to be Studio shit ten years ago

Still need phantom power.

You can get away very cheaply if you've got an external sound card

What, the Somake? It was established it was pretty bad

Nah

The Somake is pretty bad indeed

I bought one just to try it out, and it was far worse than the shitty USB audio soundcard I got years ago

Lmao, "Oddly Jameson bottle shaped vr box arrives"

@tablecat And oh, I was referring to discrete sound cards

Didn't realize I typed "external"

My SB Audigy Live is actually pretty capable of driving the mic, although I still prefer the phantom power

Oh, discrete sound card.
I'm actually using one. A Xonar DG.
Do the really provide adequate power?

Well, they provide 3 times the volts of an USB card

Which iirc are capped at 5V

I want the best quality but something inconspicuous

Awefully picky for a buyer of chink shit

But a discrete sound card will provide as much power as the jackstick in the motherboard, right?

Presumably it would spply more power.

If it`s actually better than what your onboard audio has

true ill just buy the bm800

Nothing but the finest Chinese quasi slave manufacture for the gentleman

Right, I would assume that the onboard audio is worse in terms of sound quality, but I can't make sense of how the discrete soundcard would provide more power.

penis

tfw filling my chink tablet

Get the one with the metal shock mount, don`t be chinky and save a dollar or 2 on the plastic one

full of comics to read

all 32 gb of them

That`s a lot of porn

@tablecat The onboard audio's power is shared with the chipset in terms of power supplying

While the discrete card is fueled by the PCI port

Some boards have built in amps, though

I guess that makes sense

Yeah, some boards do have that

It is funny, though. When people go buy high end motherboards, then get andiscrete sound card that is of equal or lesser quality to their integrated

It's mostly reserved for the 1337 gamer mobos, though

I hereby apology for my previous statement which unfortunately mentioned quasi slave Chinese manufacture. As a matter of fact I found astounding the development of such industries and the logistical efforts of the peoples government of China.

Nice

Well, it's because of such people that we're here :^)

Dunno why I downloaded an audiobook about jack ma from alibaba, letters of apology are the real deal

Dont watch the latest jason bourne movie
