[Rubber] I bought B&H's Rode NT-USB Mini USB Microphone Kit with Broadcast Arm and Closed-Back Headphones (BH #RONTUSBMINIB) and was fairly happy with it, but wanted to reduce sound transmitted through the desk-mounted arm. It seems that most shock mounts hold the barrel of the microphone, but the Rode NT-USB mini is a rectangular block rather than a cylinder. It bolts into this mount just fine though. The reduction in sound conducted through the arm is very noticeable. I don't have experience with other shock mounts to compare to, but this works better than I expected.

[Stand Base] Even though my Blue Yeti microphone comes with a deluxe, heavy black anodized aluminum stand, I like this one better. The Blue Yeti mic stand is tall, and the mic blocks too much of the view of my monitor. This stand, on the other hand, is the perfect height. The bottom of my microphone is barely 2 inches above the desk. It's amazingly simple to deploy, with three legs that feel like metal, maybe steel, I'm not sure. The little footpads grip the desk nicely. If you want to mount the mic directly to the 5/8 adapter like I did, you will need to purchase a right-angle mini USB adapter, because there's not enough clearance between the bottom of the mic and the stand for a conventional mini USB plug.

[2.4 GHz, 5 GHz] I already have Google Mini's, and we had an old fashioned alarm clock that we just used for time. This replaced both of those and does better than they did individually. Not sure why, but the microphone seems to be better on this than the Mini was, and the clock is bigger and easier to see at night. The fact that it has visual queues when asking google questions, is a huge help. Right now we just have one, but i want to get another one to put on each night stand. Great little gadget, especially when you can get them on sale!

[5/8"-27 Male] This microphone base allows me to use my AKG C404 XLII in it's shock mount in a desktop configuration. I tried several different mini-tripods but none worked well. This was the perfect solution.
