Review: Incredibly strong boom arm that beats Rode - I originally purchased the Rode PSA1 Swivel Mount Studio Microphone Boom Arm in 2012 and used it with my Blue Yeti microphone. It was very reliable. Earlier this year I was looking for a new boom arm and saw this and decided to try it out. Here is my comparison of both products. I am using the Blue shock mount and a pop filter in addition to my Blue Yeti microphone. Installation Installation for both products is very easy and quick in that you just clamp it to the edge of your desk. Between the two I would judge the base of the Blue boom arm to sturdier than the Rode. You screw in the shock mount on end of the boom arm, screw in the Blue Yeti into the shock mount and the clamp the pop filter to edge of the shock mount and twist it until it is in front of the microphone. I was able to attach the Rode boom arm to the back side of my desk so it will be out of the way when not in use. I was not able to do that with the Blue boom arm because I just could not get it to adjust to being in the right position when recording so I had to attach it to the side of my desk. This means it will get in my way when not in use as I move things around on my desk. Overall for installation Rode wins because it is not in the way when not in use. Adjusting Placement For Rode, you just grab it and move it where you need to have the mic placed for recording. Once you get it placed you have to let go and hope that it does not automatically start to retract due to the weight. Sometimes I have to position it, wait for it to rise, reposition it and wait for it to rise and reposition it until eventually, it stays in place. For Blue boom arm, it has three joints that you can rotate to move the mic into position. They all have a knob that you twist to loosen for it to move and when you have mic positioned then you twist it to lock it in place. Adjusting these knobs can be a challenge. But once you have the mic in place it will not move. I do 4 hours of podcast recording every Sunday and it stays in place the whole time. Overall for quickly positioning the Rode wins but you have to fidget with it. If you want the positioning to be permanent and stay there then the Blue wins by a wide margin. Cable Organization The Rode boom arm comes with some velcro straps that you can use to gather cables and then put the velcro strap over the boom arm. You get two straps to attach the cable on both halves of the boom arm. Blue, on the other hand, includes a slot built into the boom itself for the cables. Since it is built into the boom itself the cables are completely hidden from view. If you are on air when recording this is an extremely nice feature because the cables do not distract from your image on the screen. For Rode, the cables are very visible on the screen. Overall Blue wins this hands down Overall User Experience I had my original Rode boom arm for 5 years. Eventually, it got to the point where it sagged from the weight and I had to purchase a second one in 2017. I have had the Blue arm for less than half a year. I was satisfied with the Rode arm so much that when I needed to replace it I purchased it again and didn't even bother comparing any other product. When I started a new podcast as well as recording training videos I decided to get a new setup so it was consistent in color. (My original Blue yeti mic was silver and shockmount was black). I got a new black Yeti mic, black shock mount and realized they made a boom stand. After reading the reviews I decided to invest in it. I have been beyond pleased with this setup compared to the Rode. Knowing everything that I know now if I had to start over again I would purchase the Blue boom arm over the Rode hands down.
Review: What You Need to Know Before Buying - As of May 2019 this is arguably the best looking boom arm on the market. It looks better in person than any picture or video can show. The desk mount is very sleek and modern giving it style but allowing it to do its job - being a secure, sturdy mount. The hinges are well designed as well as the cable management slot is a thought out idea, it's not just Velcro tie downs. It can support mic's (w/ or w/o shock mounts) that weigh more than the advertised 2.4 lbs. The only downfall to this boom arm is the tighten rods have a plastic cap so you'll feel like you're going to break something if you go too tight BUT there is a design feature built in to help with that. There is a tension screw on the bottom (next to the pivot rod) of the arms base that allows for spring tension adjustment. You can find out how to adjust the springs tension via the owners manual. TLDR; Very good design making it the best looking boom arm on the market. Most negative reviews are due to a strong spring tension but that can be adjusted via a design feature on the arms base.

### ⭐ Doesn't do the one thing it's supposed to do
*by J***J on July 20, 2019*

This is one of the few products I've ever had to return to Amazon. It literally does not do the one thing it's supposed to do, which is hold a microphone in the desired position. Within the first couple of minutes after taking it out of the box, one of the joint covers popped off and I heard a snapping sound, as if a plastic tab had broken off. I didn't actually find anything broken on the cover or the boom, nor could I find anything on the floor, so I'm not sure what this was. In any case, it was not reassuring. The screw from the middle joint also fell out, followed by the nut, and I had to press hard and awkwardly from multiple angles simultaneously to get it all back into position. The build quality of this middle joint and its moving parts are really bad. The outside of the middle joint also has a sharp, uneven plastic edge that looks so broken I'm still not sure if the one I received was defective or if it's just badly made in general. It mounted to my desk nicely, and the base joint felt sturdy and swiveled smoothly and quietly. However, the three joints, and especially the middle one, absolutely cannot hold the position you set them to. I tightened the joints as hard as I could, and like other reviewers, nearly bruised my fingers with the amount of force necessary. And yet, the arm swings back into its default position at the middle joint, no matter how hard I tightened. I'm not an idiot. (Well, I might be, but not for this particular reason.) I read the instructions carefully and adjusted the fine-tuning screw in the base of the boom. I tried positioning the mic after several different adjustments of the fine-tuning screw. Super tight, super loose, and everything in between—the middle joint would always spring back to its default position. I could have just dealt with it and used the boom from a different position that worked better with its design, but for $100, this product should work perfectly, not barely. I'm going to try the Rode PSA1 next and hope it will be better than the Blue Compass. Very, very disappointing.
