Easy to set-up and use. On/off is a little quirky but fine. Sound is good if not dynamic.

When it arrived i was very excited. However i did not have any 9v batteries and after the long day at work I didnt feel like running out to buy it at the time. but i mounted it to the boom pole and to my camera and everything about it seemed legit. When i awoke the next morning I found that my dog had escaped out of her cage and chosen to chew on it. So sadly i never got to use it. But everything about it impressed me and I plan on getting another one here real soon.

Solid Audio
