I was trying to get a cheap shotgun mic to field record foley, birds and stuff. I bought a #Boya PVM-1000 or VM-1000N (labeling is inconsistent). It's a piece of trash. Came broken from the factory as well. Not only is the off-axis sound rejection extremely poor to the point where sometimes I can't tell the difference between 90 degrees off axis and 180 degrees off. The high-pass filter cuts at 1 kHz and the shock mount does nothing.

The downside to being an audio nerd is regularly getting excited when I think my wife has bought me a really tiny microphone, only to realize it's another one of her beauty products.

Thrilled with my iFi Audio ZEN CAN Signature (2023) analog headphone amp. Coming from the original ZEN CAN (2020), the sound improvement is genuinely noticeable on my Sennheiser HD600 and especially on my HiFiMAN Edition XS.
