Is this the best mic for REQ? Is it compatible with other software or avr calibration?
IMO, in the $100 range, yes it is. They provide SN based calibration files for vertical and direct orientation, and being USB gives you actual SPL numbers unlike a XLR CAL mic that needs extremely annoying SPL calibration that needs to be done every time your input gain knob changes. The only thing that looks kind of interesting is the use of 3D/array type mics, but they aren't as accurate. The UMIK-2 is a higher bit/sample rate, but only bats care about that. I hear good things about earthworks measurement mics, but they are XLR and pretty pricey.

I'm not sure there was any deal on Amazon. It regularly sits at $101 shipped when you buy direct from minidsp.



For those who want to explore REW: miniDSP UMIK-1 USB calibrated mic UMIK-1
What was the price? $115? I guess that's ok if you need it within two days instead of a week.

I had the same exact feeling when I ordered mine. It feels like a bait-n-switch. At least it's expedited DHL shipping, which is better than any of the more generic couriers from China. I promise that $109 is definitely worth it. I've spent that on IEM's that I haven't touched in years, but the UMIK-1 gets used all the time when I'm tinkering.

Aye, I don't think you can really have speakers and be a regular ASR member without a UMIK-1! lol!

Schiit has dropped the price for Freya Noval and Vidar.
View attachment 237010
I have purchased my Vidar ~3 weeks ago with the old price and they refunded me $100; I thought this worth mentioning as from my experience with Schiit so far I can only give them highest rating.
I wanted to buy the noval but PayPal won’t let me pay in 4 :(

Sabaj A20H headphone amplifier for $119 on Amazon. I just ordered one and will do a review or send it in for measurements if wanted. I have the matching DAC to this and it's really impressive. 5 volts and 500mw into 600ohm for $119....I have to hear it. I got the A20d DAC for $150 so can't wait to match them up. The connectors are all on the back, but I can live with it (I use flexible 1ft adapters anyway).

Thanks, I missed that one.
