Millenium MA-2040

Great for beginners or budget enthusiasts like myself.
The build of the product seems nice and stable after close to 2 months of usage. It lacks some function compared to more expensive arms and does offer a slightly limited range of motion forward. I would advise measuring your table and shopping accordingly.

However for the price it defintely does it's job and offers more space on your desk and a great way of recording different things from different perspectives. Also it seems as it diffuses most unwanted sounds from vibrations of your desk which was a huge upgrade for me.

I am happy with the purchase.

I got this arm for myself for Christmas and been using it occasionally since then. The arm itself is made out of aluminium if I'm not mistaken and has a hefty weight to it.

After using it for about 5 months I've got to admit it is sturdy and barely shows any forms of usage. The only thing that sort of annoys me is the resonating sound that the springs make if you accidentally bump it somewhere, which in my case happened too often. When it comes to design it's very simple and effective. Only thing I'd change is trying to make the strings not visible, as well as making a channel in the arm to feed the XLR cable through. mines kind of wrapped around it.

In conclusion the build quality is amazing and after about 5 months of occasional usage it barely shows any signs of usage, as well as the springs not making that annoying sound while retracting etc. Design wise I'd change a little bit of small things but otherwise, pretty good mic arm, you as the consumer is definitely getting a lot for the money.
