But I might be retarded and unable to find it.

i've seen this cheaper some places

ebay and such

NT1-A is 👌

Yeah the suckerpunch is customs though

plus it is phantom power

So I need to invest further

plus with no arm

eh, phantom power box is dirt cheap from ebay

what are you using all this for?

Nothing super professional, want to get into podcasting.

Audio in general interests me.

Oh cool, if you want to get into podcasting I would recommend you go XLR first

because my rationale was if I get a phantom power system I can upgrade the mic as far as I want

but the same box will always power it to its full capacity

with a USB mic all you can do is completely replace the mic

Yeah that's a problem, I see.

But the thing is, it's a steep front up investment.

I'm a student

Should say it all

not really, bm-800 + phantom power + arm from ebay comes to not much

kek i startedmy channel while unemployed mang

all my shit was bought with what I had left from unemployment bennies

That's why I started with talking about the BM-800, then you talked me into the Superlux.

Oh it was just something that I had on my desk

I should have asked what your project was

Hahaha

All good mate.

So back to the BM-800 I guess.

this is a good kit as an example

but you can find the same shit on ebay

I used the offer price function to haggle the price on every piece

That seems way too cheap though.

nah that's roughly what I had at the start

the second BM-800 video I move to the phantom power box I think

I see. But I just don't want to upgrade it quickly because I'm not satisfied.

nah I'm still using the bm-800 because no one seems to mind

even in the podcasts

I feel no reason to upgrade yet
